AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Two fine, elaborate handmade tablecloths, hand-embroidered
With a blue-and-white geometric pattern in cross-stitch, one a trousseau cloth and worked on blue on white ground. This is a counted cross-stitch pattern. It features a central motif: three large octagons in the middle, each framing a stylized star.
The octagons are surrounded by delicate ornaments and small diamond patterns.
Dimensions: 160 x 125

The second cloth has a floral motif with ears of wheat, cornflowers, and poppies, classic folklore-style embroidery worked in satin stitch and stem stitch.
Delicate yellow-gold ears of grain, a central floral bouquet of red blossoms and blue cornflowers.
A curved orange tendril and wavy lines with black dots frame the pattern like a border.
Along the outer edge runs a continuous black embroidered edge.
Dimensions: 145 x 120
