In one panel it is worked in long & short stitch, chain stitch, herring bone stitches & French knots in pinks, lemons with lilac and green foliage worked in chain stitch, stem stitch and herring-bone stitch. The matching panel is worked in cut-work on an open background highlighted with laid gold threads.
