It is 36 by 60 inches, thin, rough, feels like it is wool. Looks faded in some areas and colors, but is very vivid in other areas and colors. It was made by my great grandmother, who died in 1896.

It was handed down from my grandmother. I have had it for many years, probably 25 years. I have never used it in any way.
