Embroidered whitework coverlet by Jane Simonton Chapman. Rectangular white fabric with fringed edges. The fabric features an intricate embroidered design consisting of a central star surrounded by curved shapes. The star has eight points and a circle at its center. The curved shapes are arranged in a repeating pattern around the star, forming a border. The fabric appears to have a dense, textured surface due to the embroidery. The background of the fabric is white, and the embroidery is also white.
