Last Saturday I meet my friend A in her home town of Delhi. We visited the Dilli Haat, which was showcasing textiles. Needless to say, I’m now the proud owner if 3 new large scarves (“dupatta”) of various fabrics. But I resisted the beautiful patchwork & embroidered Kantha sari, like the one on this mannequin…. I already have a Kantha dupatta, which I know I’ll wear much more often than a sari (but that sari was hard to resist!)
Despite the fog, we tried to see the famous Lodi Garden, but ended up having Bloody Marys & conversation at the restaurant over looking the garden. (That still counts as sight seeing, right? Like visiting the Boathouse in Central Park!)
Thanks for a great day, A!
The fabrics look absolutely beautiful. I cannot wait to touch them!
