This is a design for embroidery on muslin or gauze. It is possibly for an apron which women wore over gowns as a form of fashionable informal dress. This design extends down each side. It is unfinished on the right side with a suggestion of how the pattern repeats. There are sprigs in the centre. The pattern down the sides could be for the sides and the sprigs could decorate the central part of the apron.
