The First Tiklis Added

I've made it almost all the way around my Kawandi piece for the second row of stitching. And as I went I started adding in a few small square-ish bits of the same gold/rose shot silk fabric which are called tikli. 

The way Sujata described the use of tikli it is like adding sequins across the surface, just little flashes of color or brightness to move the eye. All of these edges are being turned under as I stitch.
