The embroidery sampler, titled "chelliga/shelliga", features a square piece of fabric with a cream-colored background. The fabric is divided into sections with various colorful embroidery patterns. The left side has 7 main sections of embroidery, while the right side features 5 long strips of repeating patterns. The colors used are red, orange, blue, yellow, and green. Geometric shapes and floral patterns are present throughout the design. The fabric appears to be old and worn, with rough edges and some discoloration. The background of the image is a light gray color.
