This pattern is repeated on 3 sides around the central panel and in between is a wide band on 3 sides with isolated upward pointing floral sprays each with 3 carnations. The ground around these has been quilted using blue silk and a diamond pattern. The rectangular central panel is divided into a lobed arch by a band of yellow and blue chevrons outlined in green. It contains offset rows of floral motifs: a pale flowers outlined in light blue with green leaves and pink leaves or buds outlined in black, alternating with a small 4-petalled flower outlined in black.

It contains a small vase, a large blue flower [carnation?] and leaves or buds outlined in black.
