Rangoli - new and special designs

This rangoli is a combination of three types.  First the previous rangoli of the previoous post  was erased and the powder rearranged to form the central design with purple hue. Then  using a rangoli stencil a design is obtained at the centre.  The  periphery is then decorated by a freehand  rangoli border.  A new type of rangoli design indeed!


The first rangoli,  when it is erased, the accumulated rangoli powder is used as a central design decorated  with freehand rangoli borders to get the above new deisgn (I find it painful to remove a rangoli). Please notice the slight difference in colour of the central patterns of the above rangolis. Thus using very few colours also we can draw a decent rangoli.

The third design.  However a simple rangoli at the centre is decorated with a rangoli stencil border and further expanded with single and parallel  line patterns.
