Against a yellow backdrop with brown and white polka-dots, several flowers appear spread out across this vertically rectangular textile. Each flower has a dark green stem and one or two set of leaves branching off the stem. Instead of flower petals, each flower has five teardrop shapes, alternating between red and yellow color. Inside each teardrop is the small image of another flower, with a petal and two leaves branching off its stem.
