Drawn on the ground floor of our apartment. An amalgamation of different kolams in our ikolam website. It is not bright because the floor was still wet when I took the snap.

Simple 13-1 straight dotted kolam with my favourite lavender/ green color make up.Kids said there are so many 'V' in this so named it"V" kolam.(I expect 8 out of ten marks for this and hinted it in the kolam also).

After giving colours, we need to put the white border
again, so that the kolam will be bright and beautiful...

Rangoli: sona hexagon

This is an important (to me) dotted rangOli. many of you may remember I introduced sona patterns some time ago (see my blog http://www.ikolam.com/node/7295 and my rangOlis too). When there is only one colour for the rectangular pattern, there are two colours for the sona square. I was for a long time wondering whether I could construct a sona hexagon. At last I did. I took a 3 X 2 sona pattern (in cyan right bottom) and from that constructed a sona hexagon which has, like sona square, only two colours. This is a very important pattern. Most of the chikku kOlmas are drawn for dots in a square grid. But I have shown that we can draw such a pattern for hexagonal grid too (shown on top left as a guide). When rangOlis are drawn on hexagonal grids, three lines meet at a point. In this rangOli, there is a chikku triangle. Look at how the lines go up and down as in the square chikku kOlmas. I will at some time demonstrate this with strings for better understanding. Please study this pattern carefully when you try to draw on the floor or do an embroidery. Enjoy!
