Beside the sketched / painted pictures, I use print cloth with my own design. You can see part of the pale red reverse at the bottom of the picture.
I could call my working method "quilted korak" because it unites two traditions: Korak, the connecting of folded rectangles and triangles, the folded edge covering the cut or torn edges, stabilized with pins, sewn in a small stitch, the pins being removed as you go. You can see the unfinished part with pins in process. Then, the spaces receive a dense quilting to grant a ripply surface for all materials. The result is quite sturdy, due to the double layers of the pieces.
