    Hi Sindhu.. Nice to see your post.. I love them and they are always very relevant. I was excited to see that today is handloom day. I posted lots of handloom photos of facebook that I took in Paramakudi – place that lives on handloom

    Hi Preethi, happy to have you here! Nice to know that we share similar view about handloom products 🙂 I would like to know more about Paramakudi, glad you shared the info. Even I was preparing to post since the day before but BESCOM gave a lot of trouble with surrise power cuts till late evening. By hook or crook, I wanted to post it and succeeded before the calendar changes to the next day 🙂
    Happy Handloom Day! TC! Keep smiling 🙂

    Great post Sindhu. I hope your wish comes true, “may Indian traditional textiles and handloom industry prosper. May this be true for all the traditional textiles all over the world.”

    Oh it’s good to read about a handloom festival. I find handloom items quite cool and they have a nice casual feel.
    Thank you Sindhu.

    (I am catching up on reading your posts, Sindhu 😉 ) It is wonderful to see PM Modi supporting hand weaving. India of course has a proud and distinguished history of creating beautiful textiles. I think it is so important to nurture old traditional craft methods, wherever we live, so that they are not forgotten. Thank you for posting about your National Handloom Day – fascinating to learn about it!
    Best Wishes, Peggy 🙂
