Since I did not have yellow cloth, I stitched together many smaller pieces cut from around patterns of a blanket and some pieces of turmeric-dyed cloth. Furthermore, I had to do the same for the red cloth even though most of it is covered up now. For the smoke, I incorporated new textures by  loosely stitching some thinner fabric to create more dimension. The fire and houses are embroidered on to provide more details and add a different type of movement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/62-150\/f2020a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_9983-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/62-150\/f2020a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_9983-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/62-150\/f2020a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_9983-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/62-150\/f2020a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_9983-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/62-150\/f2020a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_9983-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/62-150\/f2020a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_9983-1200x1600.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/courses.ideate.cmu.edu\/62-150\/f2020a\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_9983-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If I were to do this project again, I would be more careful with not wrinkling the fabric at each step.
