"Did YOU make all this?"

Lovely music, giggles and colourful stalls made the afternoon scorching heat seem so pleasant. I was immersed in the lovely ambience sipping the cooling coconut water. Surrounding me, were the bead creations that I created all year long - Name Tags with beaded characters, Theme-based skirts with bead danglers for girls and ladies, Bead Jewellery,... to name a few. Yes! We had yet another stall, like every year in the BIG Diwali Mela at Primus Public School.

A girl came strolling to our stall. Looking around, what first stroke her attention was the band of beads banner. She studied it for quite some time. Touched it. Pondered over it. I just sat on my chair and observed her. Later, she glanced at our products. She had the Alice in wonderland look on her face! I kept observing her and loved her imagination. After a while, she asked, "Did YOU make all this?"

Well yes, I did make the bead products. But the banner, which attracted her first had a strong foundation. A foundation laid by four generations - my grand mom, mom, myself and of course my daughter. Made from cloth by the technique of hand applique, this colourful banner has a lots of stories hidden behind it.

A result of great dedication and team work by the four of us, the whole process was like passing a baton to the other. One person did the tracing. The other did the cutting and the third person stitched it. I also had an ever-ready little helper, who gave me pencils and pens from her pencil box! The best part was that we inter-changed our roles but could still achieve an awesome result!

Band of beads has one more memory. And, it will truly be placed on top at all times!
