This design was submitted some time back by Ms.Padma Prakash. I made this kolam today with an added border and some colours. Someone has already helped to disturb one part of the kolam before I could click!

One kutti kolam for today's (17-03-2011) Pradosham. The centre square was tried with kuzhal but the lines are not clear as the kolapodi did not flow out from the kuzhal freely. Can anyone suggest whether we need to use some spl podi for kuzhal?

This my contribution to the 9x9 matrix kolam collection! To draw this design, I initially made the 4x4 design in the corners and then connected them together as shown in the image. This is the first time I have tried to make my own chikku design...

This kolam was made by me for one of the Marghazhi days. As I had used turmeric and kumkum for the yellow and red colours respectively, they did not flow and spread properly - hence a lot of spillage - Also this is the first time I am making kolams with colours. Hope to do more neatly in future.

I drew this 11 dot kolam about two weeks back. Inspired by Ms.Veni, I made a single coloured outer border for the chikku design.

After seeing the Judy's recent kitchen top kolam where she had spread the kola podi and drawn a chikku design with her (dancing) fingers, I was tempted to try something like that with wet maavu !! I spread some left over dosa maavu on my kitchen top and when it was almost dry, made this lotus using a matchstick! Not satisfied with the neatness... still thought of sharing it with you....

One friday, I tried my 10x10 matrix padikolam on the floor and this is the outcome. Hope it resembles by paper and pen version. Though it took me about 45 min to complete, I was happy to finally see my creation on the floor.

I had tried uploading this one also. Pl see if you have got it. This kolam lacks colour symmetry; still my husband felt that it was good enough for uploading.
