Inspiration
This feeling I cannot name, alone in a chilly night without any fire for warmth.
I caress the tea pot in playful mirth.
This feeling I know, standing on the crossroads, directionless and lost.
Marooned in self-doubt; playfully I walk along in just any direction.
This feeling I have tried to forget, a bitter goodbye that tears couldn’t bring back.
A goodbye is bitter, but I playfully celebrate the life that was so fine.
A baby’s cry shrill to the ear orphaned and left to tears.
What do you do but playfully ease her pain.
A reluctant lover, cloudy skies are brighter than this thunder face,
What do you do, but playfully tease him out of his gloomy place.
A mad life, steep demands, unbearable emotions foreboding premonitions.
Do what you must but don’t forget to playfully play along.
Simple and calm as this saree looks. An elegant and pleasing choice for the day. The geometrical blocks give the saree a playful edge to an otherwise consistent look.

Description
Fabric:
The vibrant prints find life in a pure cotton fabric. The fabric is slightly heavy and not soft like mull cotton. The drape keeps in place. The saree does not need starching and maintains it’s fall very well.
Printing:
The design is block printed on the saree. One of the oldest direct printing techniques is block printing, dating back thousands of years. In block printing, a design is carved into a hard substance like wood. Then, fabric is laid out flat, and the block is dipped in dye and pressed onto the fabric. Block printing doesn’t require many tools and can be done manually. The process is simply repeated until the desired effect is reached. Some printing blocks can be quite intricate.We have used multiple blocks to achieve the entire effect on the saree.
