The Procession

by Crafty on June 6, 2008

Today has been a great day. Yesterday there has been so many power failure that my day was almost ruined. Have decided to get either an inverter or a generator. Climate has gone through a drastic change. Its been raining here and rain = dirty water. There is no proper sewage and proper roads. This time the government has promised like the last time they did and they forget once they come into rule.

The Procession

This is the first cross stitch i did. It took me almost 6 months to complete this piece. I have a funny incident related to this Art Work. Actually, I give all my art works to frame at a corner shop in Chennai. I am very attached to that shop as i have been their regular customer for years. So when i shifted to Bangalore, I used to carry all the things i needed to frame from here. So this piece I had given at the same shop which is like 20 minutes drive from my home. So when i gave it for framing never thought how i would carry it back to my home.

So Sachin and me drove to the shop in our Kinetic Honda. Once we reached there we knew how huge it was. We held it in between us, and everyone right from the traffic police man to the road side vendors wanted to see what is that we are carrying. And finally when we reached home the whole piece was open for public. It was one of a kind experience.
