Latest saree designed- with Jamini Roy paintings prints


Now a days digital prints on cloth is a trend. The digital prints are also used in latest designs of sarees. Even I wanted to design a saree with digital prints. Fortunately I found a cloth with prints of Shri Jamini Roy's paintings.
(Shri Jamini Roy was an Indian painted. He brought new style in paintings. He followed folk style. You can read more about Shri Jamini Roy and about his paintings here. )
Here is the cloth I found.Actually  this was a salwar top. I thought with this I can design a saree. It has prints of all the famous paintings of Shri Jamini Roy. Obviously the designer in me was very excited to design a saree with this cloth.

The saree has 4-5  main colors, I had confusion to select the saree color. Anyhow I had decided to use the printed cloth with print as saree border. Mango yellow color  is very prominent , so went ahead with that color as saree. Here is my selection of cloths, Mango yellow jute cotton, and blue and green for the borders:
As decided , used the printed cloth as border, cut the cloth into stripes, so that each stripe covers longest print :

And attached it on the border , and on the either side attached the Blue and Green cloth along it. Here is how the saree border looks:

And here is the saree designed, worn by my Chammak challo( I have named the mannequin as Chammak Challo :))

 And the printed cloth was left out, so designed a simple blouse with that.
