Description (Physical description)
This is a rectangle of fabric, with a wide red border around a blue embroidered rectangle. Although the whole blue area is embroidered, there is an obvious area where the neck would be cut out. The cut out piece would be a large rectangle, which would be sewn down the sides to create a square shaped blouse, similar to the others in this set. The whole thing is stitched onto a neutral coloured backing material.
