The text: Frederick Carl Frieseke, “Girl Sewing” (“The Chinese Robe”) You will need: Comfortable robe Craft project Couch with throw pillows House plants Plus images of all those those things, including the painting, which shows a young woman reclining propped up on a flowered sofa. She wears a pale green robe covered with a floral pattern and holds a piece of embroidery, which she works on. Her hair is dark and pulled back. Behind the sofa, potted plants sit in a row on a windowsill.
