The creation of the gharchola is a complex and time consuming procedure. A starched silk odhni or sari is set to a huge wooden frame by means of nails. The sari/odhini, tinted red or green, is alienated into a set-up of squares by rows of white tie dyed spots or woven bands of zari. Patterns inside each compartment vary from elephants, parrots, and flowers to dance girls.
