Object Description
Embroidered textile, shades of green, orange, and yellow. Geometric design. The design consists of green square shapes in rows. The shape has a brown X in the middle, surrounded by a yellow diamond, which is then surrounded by a branching orange. Outside of the orange, there is light green in a square shape with points in the middle of the sides. It is outlined in brown. Outside the brown is a dark green, which looks somewhat diamond-shaped with more elaborate points between the sides of the diamond, forming a square. The border of the cloth is brown with orange in the middle.
Origin
This has a cross-stitch design on it. Cross stitch is a type of counted thread embroidery, which would have been made easier due to the wide thread spacing of this textile.
