Hi Ms.Vimala,
Good to "hear and see" from you after a long time!

Thanks Jayamohan. Except Rama's dhoti all the other dolls dress are created by me.Srinivasa's crown and background of the crown for other dolls were created by me say 2years back. These dolls belong to my motherin law say 50 years old and I dressed it 2 years back for navaratri.Jewels few are ( say Bangles -I used finger ring for Rama ,Lakshmana and Srinivasa ) ready - made and rest I did it myself.
