I did this by pinning a horizontal line of design along the top edge of the cup and along the bottom edge of the cup and ruching in between. The way the design worked was that the ones on the top and bottom were geometric lines of design with a line of figurative designs (dancing girls or camels or vases) in between. I positioned it so that the figurative designs were evenly spaced, pulled excess together in the center and stitched it down so that you ended up with clear design elements along the top and bottom edges and gathering in the middle.
