Welcome to ikolam Ms.Amutha!
This rangoli does look a bit hard to master, but as you said, you've done a fabulous job of it. Thank you for joining ikolam, and for sharing this piece with all of us.

pretty complicated one...can you give the meaning of "Neli"? Is it anyway related to Krishna? Actually in kannada nelli is the rope holder tied to the roof columns in which the butter/ curds pots are stored...a very rare sight which can be found in villages.

Anirudh, neli are just curved lines like a snake! Experts draw double nelis with middle finger and ring finger fast!
