Stitches in Aari embroidery

As i was going through some of my seminar contents, the seminar i presided at Womens polytehnic, Coimbatore, i guessed why not to start with names of the Aari stitches, YES,..
Like any other needlework, there are variety of stitches in Aari embrodiery too, The stitches can be of three types, outliners, fillers and embellished ones.
The stitches that are in outliners are the Chain, Tambour, T chain, Layers.
The stitches that are in the fillers are herringbone, mixed, long and short, and doria.
Among some of the embellished are sitara, katdhana, zardhosi, jalakdoshi, nakshi and many more..
Hope this very first listing of the aari stitches will awaken your spirits! 
I will post the summary of pictures in next post,
Luv all:0)
