This is a 36.5" x 39" piece of what I believe is a cotton type material. It could be used just as it is, but when I was young these were sold as embroidery patterns. (Picture French knots on the yellow dots, leaf stitches on the small leaves, satin stitches on the big leaves, etc.) It's in really nice condition, but it will need to be cleaned. If you hold it up to the light it has a couple of faint yellowish spots. This would look really nice on a small round table, with the embroidered corners hanging off the sides.
