These sections were removed from another blouse. Lengths of yellow and white machine embroidered ribbon run around both cuffs. There are cross-stitched floral and geometric designs around the collar. It is held closed with red and white ribbon ties. A vertical line of embroidery runs down the front of the blouse, nearly to its bottom. The embroidery is pale pink, pale yellow, pale orange, and bright yellow.Credit LineGift of Eileen and the late Josef Mandát of Scarborough, Ontario, Canada
