Stitching a simple triangle shape design that becomes a border.


SHINDHI THOPA: TRIANGLE SHAPE








Step 1:
Draw a grid along the stretch of cloth that you want to stitch the sindhi thopa. 
Prefarably 1.5 cm by 1.5 cm as shown below



START FROM THE RIGHT TO THE LEFT ALL ALONG THE STITCHING AREA













STEP 3
Second Row: Begin in the middle of the first triangle and move the needle below the thread






That is the end of a net for 1 triangle.  Continue the steps all along the stitching area until you come to an end.  The next step will be the netting.
When stitching, remember not to pull the thread to hard as it will tightened the frame work.  Keep your hand a little relax.

This should be how the back of the cloth should look like.
