The applications concern three flower branches per corner with two rosette flowers and two clock flowers on each branch. A V-shaped frame has been realized with four feathered leaves around the flower branches. The applications were made by embroidering flowers on a piece of batist with feston stitches and cordon stitches. Possibly a whole piece of batist has always been attached to the tulle and only then parts of batist are cut away, the shape following the embroidered motifs. The strip along the edge is fixed with few fine pleats, pleated more strongly in the corners. A wide cream -colored ribbon runs under the pillow, which is sewn on two opposite sides of the pillow. The long loose ends of the ribbon serve to be tied over the child's body. The pillow is stored with a tie ribbon.
