hi,
i really love these gujarathi works…for a really very long time ive been looking for some kind of tutorials or steps to stitch a mirror. Can you help me with this.
Everytime i try to stitch a mirror they fall off and it is so complicated to understand from the look of a fully stitched mirror. Please help me with learning the art of stitching mirrors.Thank you.
