Rumal

an explanation, rumal is Hindi for handkerchief

used by Sikh men to cover hair

also by Thugees (just love that word), with a coin

tied at one corner, as a method of strangulation

(probably too much information)

I used a rather lovely lawn handkerchief once belonging to a

great aunt.  Dyed with turquoise and lemon yellow.   Out with

the batik wax pot and an ear plug, courtesy of British Airways,

to stamp circles.    Thoughts of bandani tie dye,  and

bandana scarves.   On close inspection the original 

embroidered flowers can be discerned in one corner

Free machine stitched petals, with addition of gold centre

I hope the original owner would have approved!!!
