A square pale cotton and linen cloth is embroidered with a dense central cluster of bulbous organic forms. To the left, striped gray and tan shapes with raised knots fan out. At the center, a muted purple ridged form overlaps a dark brown grid pattern. A vertical mustard yellow element hangs toward the bottom. On the right, overlapping tan forms with dense horizontal stitching resemble husks against the background's fine, linear needlework.
