Day 11: This one is for you Thamma. This soft Kanchi silk was a birthday gift from my grandmother-in-law. 90 something , she actually walked all the way from her home to the saree shop ( well, my in-laws’ home being in College Street, Kolkata, quite a few famous saree shops are actually a stone’s throw away) and selected this saree herself for me. A very common combination, maroon with golden & red border, this saree is none-the-less a very special one for me, purely because of its emotional value.
