Triple S, eppadi pa, ippidi ellam answer panna ungaluku thonudhu. (How to get ideas to answer like this). Ha ha ha, Rani neenga idhuku munnadi oru GG vechu, engaloda thookatha 2 days kedutheenga. Oru naal madhiyanam thookam pona onnum thappu illa. (Rani, u started one GG before and for 2 days u didn't allow us to sleep without revealing the answer. So it is not wrong in sacrificing one mid-day sleep). Mahalakshmi

I believe that there won't be any further guesses from other members. So I decided to reveal the answer - Here it goes...... It has been referred from Lata Kalaimani's gallery - "Celtic Rangoli for St.Patrick's day" - http://www.ikolam.com/node/11503?p=5851 Rani, Uma, Pushpa, SSS & Sowmya - Please don't throw away stones from there. Thanks for your participation. Mahalakshmi

What to do Rani, I had no idea for the first couple of days, that it was my St.Patrick's day celtic knot pattern! :0 I mean this design is embellished so beautifully that it camouflages the base design really well. :) Maha, I didn't figure out even when you had emailed me before posting it here. It was only after the game had begun had I stated to pay close attention and found out. Even then I had to check back into a few files just to make sure. I must hand it to you Maha, you are one great trickster! :0 All in all a nice guessing game that all of us enjoyed. A little bit about the basic celtic knot seen in my St.Patrick's day pattern. Usually I use Adobe Illustrator, or Photoshop to make such drawings, and this pattern unless animated would have only taken me about 30 minutes to make. But, I tried out a 3d package to make this pattern, and it was a difficult one to get the interwoven lines built out of cylinders (the only option in the 3d software). So, it ended up taking me 4 hours to complete that simple design. :)

Lata, thanks a lot. Actually i was bit a afraid whether I have done full justice to your design. Yes Lata, making the outer layer interwoven designs is bit difficult. i don't know how Rani and Pushpa felt about it. But I have done too much practise and homework before making this final drawing. hats off to ur creativity. Mahalakshmi
