Description

Long rectangular reddish-orange textile with yellow-orange embroidery. On three edges of the textile is a border of small repeating stem and leaf(?) designs with one in a light mint green. Both of the short edges have a row of small repeating floral designs, much like the larger designs in the centre of the textile. The overall pattern is large repeating star-like flowers(?), halves of the same flower(?), and thin outlines of flower petals(?). The majority of the flowers have dark blue centres, but some have pink or light mint green centres. One large flower has a dark blue diamond-shaped petal. The square in the bottom left corner is different, with geometric designs surrounding the flower. The long edges of the textile are finished with loop stitching.
