And finally both the two Japanese cross stitches are on our wall. I got the same from US while I was at Paris (2005); I completed one in Paris and other in Mumbai. After finishing them, there was lots of procrastination and deliberation in finding the correct passe-partout. We visited few shops around Shiv Sena Bhavan at Dadar, Mumbai but nothing finalized. After that when Santanu went to Singapore for business trip he got the passe-partout from there. It seems he even got tax refund for the same. Then he ordered the frames from Dadar while the framing was completed by Santanu at home.

And last but not least these frames ultimately got hung at our Bangalore rented Apartment for the first time. Wow what a journey for these two from US to B’glore.
