A group of women and children are gathered on a tiled floor in a room, sitting in a loose circle around large sheets of light-colored material. One woman in a pink patterned top sits cross-legged on the left, while another in red kneels in the center working on the material. Two women sit on the right, one wearing a black head covering, and two children sit nearby, one holding a blue-lit device. A wooden bench with folded textiles stands against the wall, and bags of fabric are stacked in the corner. A framed picture hangs on the wall above the bench, and a wooden door is visible on the right edge of the frame.
