Two women are seated at a table with a sewing machine between them. The woman in the foreground, wearing glasses and a patterned top with a red scarf, is guiding fabric under the needle while operating the machine. The woman behind her, wearing glasses and a yellow top with a blue scarf, leans in to assist, her hands near the machine's mechanism. A piece of fabric with black straps lies on the table beside the machine. In the background, a window with a decorative metal grille lets in daylight, and a wall-mounted textile hangs on the left.
