    Colour combination is different.We dont have to use popular combinations always.However,if the cream/biege was a bit brighter,it would look very nice.It looks a hair dull due to the cream.

    Thakyou Swarnabalu for the first feedback.
    Procedure is very simple you need 2 sheets of plastic canvas and some wool .
    Select a tissue box and place the plastic sheet over the box so that at least one square is left all around the box. You will need 4 pieces for the sides and one for the top section.
    Select a pattern you like. Make sure the pattern placed exactly in the middle if not it will look odd. Repeat the selected pattern on all four sides.
    Cut a hole approx 15 squares by 5 squares in the centre of the sheet for the top, can be more if you prefer.
    For assembling it the sides must be stitched to the top section first using diagonal stitches. the the sides should be attached second, if not it will be difficult to sew it together.
    This was my first attempt

    Thankyou Shambu, I agree with you, I could not find another colour to go with maroon in the same thread width so I went for the best option, I should have changed the pattern.
