There is a leaf on either side, which touches the tips with the leaf of the flower in the corner next to it. Each flower has a "stem" in the form of a piece of narrow rectangular cloth that wasn't cut out and goes from the flower to the corner. There is a small cloth border around the entire napkin. One flower has a cutwork circle above its design. The thread is a tan color.
