The designs of domestic embroideries like this one are clearly based on the more expensive woven silks popular at the Ottoman court. The embroideries have the same flowers, serrated leaves and other motifs as the woven silks, but their shapes are often less well-defined. The embroideries required less costly materials (mainly linen and silk thread) and women could make them in their own homes. Large panels served as quilt-covers and hangings. Smaller pieces were used as napkins, sashes and towels, and for wrapping oneâs possessions on the way to the public bath. Most of the embroidery is done in simple stitches, such as darning stitch, couching and running stitch.

Fiziksel açıklama
Cover, incomplete, linen embroidered with silk in fine darning over one thread. 47 warp and 47 weft threads per inch. There is a border with a segmented undulating stem decorated with the same elements as the field. The field is decorated with undulating parellel stems which have a central white zigzagged line with alternating red or blue triangles. From the stem grow red stems some with two white flowers, some with a red and green rose bud and others with a spray of composite flowers. Some of the minor stems are green or blue; any leaves are small and vary in colour.
