A vintage illustration depicting three women engaged in sewing and garment-making tasks. The woman on the left is sewing a piece of fabric, the one in the middle is also sewing while the woman on the right is ironing a garment. There are piles of fabric on the floor, a couple of boxes, and chairs around them. Overhead, two pendant lamps provide light for their work. The scene suggests a workshop or a home-based garment production setting.
