Dot pattern is 6 by 6  This is an easy method to create a muggu.  Using these repeated patterns we can create many designs.  I will share more ideas .  After drawing these , we can decorate with motifs and colours to make it beautiful .  We can draw for festivals  like Sankranthi or Ugadi or use for our daily purpose muggulu without colour.

5 by 5 dots  The step by step images show how a simple dot rangoli can be made very beautiful by adding patterns in the gaps.  This is one of the main aspects - try to have minimum space , fill with patterns - only thing is that all patterns should match each other - should be congruous

 Free hand rangoli are beautiful in their own way.  We can let our imagination run riot while creating them.  We can finish our daily kolam in a jiffy if we can create these type.  While imagination is the limitation , we should ensure that all the patterns used are in agreement with one another.

The chukkalu are 6,4,4,6 and then 2 extra chukkalu at four corners. Tradtional muggulu are very easy and beautiful.  This design can be drawn independently or combined with four to make a big size design for Bhogi panduga.  I have shown the free hand patterns with white powder .  We can use colours to make a unique rangoli with white and colour combination.

The star dot pattern is drawn using 9 to 13 dots and 4,3,2,1 dots on either side Star dot pattern chukki rangoli for Sankranthi and Bhogi Beautiful sangu kolam design for festivals like Pongal, step by step Connect the dots with a single curved line to get the best effect in the muggu Sangu kolam can also be drawn on Saturdays particular during Purattasi   For festivals like Bhogi , Sankranthi ( Pongal ) and also for Ekadasi.  This is a smaller version of a bigger muggu with 19 dots.  Add bright colours when drawing for festivals and kaavi border for Ekadasi .  It is a combination of three big and three small shankam.  One of the comments on Facebook for one my videos was "This is should be taught in schools .  Children will never leave classes".  I wonder why this simple art is not being taught in kids.  At least to my knowledge it is not part of the extra curricular activities.
