Borders from a cover, cut and applied to a modern centre, cotton embroidered with silk in double darning, and double running in a line, with metal thread in slanted satin stitch and with plate in satin stitch filling in squares. The borders have been joined at each corner.
There is a narrow border above and below the main border formed by an angular green meandering stem from which a small flower branches to the left and then to the right; theflowers are in shades of pink, red and purple. The main border is decorated with a large pointed-petalled flower with a metal thread centre; the petals are in shades of red and pale pinks. To one side of this flower, and connected to it, is a curving green stem with leaves and smaller branching stems bearing blue flowers and others in shades of pink.
