Gejje Vastra Tutorial

Hello peeps!!!

After receiving so many queries and requests for a video tutorial for making Gejje Vastra here I am posting a video tutorial for the same. On my last visit to my Mom's place I requested her to help me with this tutorial and she happily obliged. Thank you Mom!!

So the materials needed are cotton, a white towel , a cardboard for support , thread and needle, fevicol and colorful aluminium foil for decorating the Gejje Vastra.

Place the towel on your exam pad, and make rolls or thread of cotton as shown in the video. And when you have the desired length of cotton thread, wind it around a small cardboard piece or any thick card stock. Decide upon the number of petals and wind the cotton for the same number of times around the card stock. Make a knot at the center using a needle and a thread. Spread the flower petals and using colorful aluminium foils, decorate and make designs. It is upon you to experiment and create different designs using the above technique.

Happy experimenting and creating people. This is my first video and was recorded on my mobile. So the quality of the video is not very clear. Pleas bear with me. For further queries do leave a comment or mail me. Will try and reply to your queries.

Gejje Vastra

Hi all!! 

I have been receiving a lot of mails regarding Gejje Vastra and I have been answering them all by saying that I will post about a few designs soon. But sadly I have been a bit busy and have been postponing it for a while. So today I am posting a few pictures of gejje vastra designs that my MOM did last year for Ganesha festival. I couldn't take good pictures of all the items that she has done. These are just some sample designs that shhe made for me to post on my blog. Hope this post will be a it helpful to all you who want to try different designs in gejje vastra.

Crochet

As I have told earlier, I love crochet but sadly I don't have the patience of learning the art of crochet....

But my om does know crochet and she made this for me . She has also made a lot of other crochet stuff to but well I have not yet taken any pics. Hope to take pics and will post them too.

Have you people heard about Tatting?

I do not do any tatting but my Mother is hooked on to it....

She used to do this Tatting a few years back... but then she left it....

Now the Tatting Bug has bitten her again... and she has been experimenting and trying new patterns everyday..

Recently when she visited us here in Guntur, in January, she gave a few of these to me...:)

I am not such a big fan of Tatting but am searching a few new patterns for my mom so that she can do those things .......

We want her to be busy otherwise she worries about anything and everything :(
