This is a drawing of a woven textile sample. The piece features a collection of woven patterns utilizing various colors, textures, and weaves. The central area is divided into blocks with unique designs. The left section has vertical stripes in green, with hints of blue and pink. The middle area has a lattice-like pattern, and the right section has geometric motifs in blue over a contrasting background. Each pattern set is bordered, and the bottom edge has tassels in blue, green, and pink. The names "Westchester County" and "Maud Schmid" are inscribed beneath the textile sample.
