Wedding blanket

(UEM49205) The blanket has double vertical borders.  The characteristic multi coloured diagonal lines pattern are on all of the four vertical edges of the two panels. Each panel has four diamonds in which there is a large flower or a wheel-like motif with rays. There are girls surrounding two of the diamonds in two of their corners and in the other two diamonds in there stylised mudhifs (local guest houses ) in two of the corners. The embroidery is somewhat crude.
