Freely express your vision without critiques Live in an emotion which is quite close to your heart Transport you to "your own" space.... ....imagination is your limit!

From one to two digits - We're 10 years old! What started as a re-visit to the passion lost in the sands of time, now celebrates its entry to the two-digit world! Fabrics change. Beads have more variety. With time, come new experiences and new ventures. It's been a journey witnessing these transitions. I feel thankful and grateful to all the wonderful guests who encourage me to be a bead artist and fabric enthusiast. Here's a celebration for all of us - a whole fabric made with patchwork showcasing each valuable skirt/top/wall hanging order. Yes! We do remember each one of you!

Its an experience to peek into the world of artists . What makes it more interesting is, when the skill is passed on from one generation to another. Fresh perspectives expressed in a different form, art remains alive - an invaluable inheritance!
