Artistic Traditions: September 2008
http://artistictradition.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 21, 2008. I love Alpana Gujral's jewelry designs. As a designer, what fascinates her is the process of transitioning one of her designs from conception to execution. Drawing from traditional motifs, Alpana says, "It takes me about four to five months to make a piece. I conceptualize it and then it is made by one of my craftsmen in Delhi or Jaipur.".

Tuesday, December 9, 2008. Preserving our Textile Traditions: The Calico Museum of Textiles. TV shows or video-games!

Artistic Traditions: November 2012
http://artistictradition.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 3, 2012. Closer to home on the Silk Route. While Phulkari textiles are available in the Patiala bazaar, we were in search of a particular store which came highly recommended to my friend, Raji. Zigzagging through the narrow bazaar streets finally led us to the said-store where we were welcomed like long-lost family.Every piece of hand-made phulkaris were displayed so that we could make our selection. Since the main stitch is the darning stitch, the motifs tend to be geome. For further ...

Sunday, February 26, 2012. Sabyasachi Mukherjee and the saree. The saree is my favorite garment of choice; whether it be a heavy Kanjeevaram, or a brocaded Benarasi Tanchoi or an embroidered French chiffon, I have always thought that there is no other garment that can equal the saree for its grace and elegance and yet be the sexiest garment ever!

Artistic Traditions: Kalamkari
http://artistictradition.blogspot.com/2008/04/kalamkari.html
Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Since the base fabric is either cotton or silk, or in more recent years, on chiffons or crepes, Kalamkari on clothing has become synonymous with ethnic chic. Check out this stunning selection from http:/ www.yncimports.com/. December 16, 2008 at 2:41 AM. Kalamkari prints are my all time favorites. They blend well with any decor.

Artistic Traditions: Revival of Mashroo - A dying fabric tradition
http://artistictradition.blogspot.com/2008/12/revival-of-mashroo-dying-fabric.html
Saturday, December 6, 2008. Revival of Mashroo - A dying fabric tradition. The most prevalent colours were orange, red and green in bold combinations of stripes. Designs also evolved to include other resist techniques such as Ikat interspersed with the stripes. It is exciting to see that young designers in India are starting to revive such heritage textiles. I, for one, am waiting anxiously to make my next trip to India and revive my own love-affair with Mashroo! December 8, 2008 at 9:00 PM. Very happy t...
