Energetic and yet full of harmony - India is a vibrant subcontinent full of exotic colours and smells. The intense colours also play a major role in everyday life, which is expressed not least in the Indian colour festival "Holi". Whether consistently combined or as individual design elements in an otherwise rather restrained living room decoration - whoever is gripped by the passion for this colour world will be able to
he can't get rid of her. The large seat cushion is sewn from a few individual parts and designed with stencilled golden motifs. Gemstones and mirrors complete the expressive look. The table runner is sewn from leftover fabric. You decide how to combine the individual fabrics, depending on your skill and taste.
It's that simple:

Draw a circle with Ø 60 cm and divide it into 8 equal triangles. For the base plate, cut the pattern in half and transfer the two half circles onto the lavender-coloured fabric using a line-ex pen and 2 cm seam allowance. Cut out with pinking scissors and sew together to form the circle

Cut 104 x 34 cm twice from the pink fabric for the outer surface. Spray the elephants-Stencil thinly with the positioning spray, let it flash off briefly and place it. paint Stencil well and dab on the golden Textile paint with the nudge brush. Peel off the Stencil , place it on the second blank and also stencil the motif on it, then clean it with water or stencil cleaner.

Dry the Stencil , then turn it over and stencil two more elephants mirror-inverted. Let the paint dry.

Cut 4 strips of 5 x 104 cm each from the golden fabric and four times 104 cm Cord. Place the Cord on the metallic fabric, fold left to left and sew just along the Cord

Cut 2 triangles with 2 cm seam allowance from each colour and sew them together to form a circle. Stencil up small motifs.

sew the two parts of the border together on the short sides except for a small opening for filling, sew the golden Cord around the base plate and seat, join all parts together.

Cut a circle with Ø 12,5 cm out of the golden fabric and stitch a seam all around by hand. On top of the circle, place some cotton wool (about the size of a chicken Ice) and a round piece of lamppost foil (Ø 5,5 cm). Carefully close the quilted seam, knot the thread and sew it criss-cross, this way you will achieve more stability

Using the decorative button thus created, pull the top and bottom of the cushion together slightly in the middle and sew it up.

Fill the cushion and close the opening with a mattress stitch. Finally, sew on the bells and stick on the gemstones with gemstone glue.

Tip:
The seat cushion has a volume of approx. 84 l in the dimensions selected here.

Sew together any pieces of the fabric remnants and bind them with the gold cord described for the seat cushion. Cut the non-woven and the bottom fabric (in our case pink) to size and sew them together with the upper part right sides together except for a small turning opening, end and close with mattress stitch. Then topstitch through all seams.

Fold and wrap one dock per tassel Embroidery twist in the middle. Then remove the baneroles and cut the tassels open at the bottom. Pull a single thread through as a suspension and sew it to the 4 corners of the table runner.

Finally, stencil up different motifs and glue on some gemstones after drying.
