The painting displays colorful rags which are being used to make a rope rug. You may notice that the background of the picture is painted in the same color scheme as the rags. The frame is unusual and was probably designed and made by the artist after some she had seen in Florence.
The work's composition is flattened, angular and slightly askew in its perspective. These devices place her work in the Formalist Modernist camp, as opposed to work by Henri Moser or Louise Richards Farnsworth, who were Fauvist (literally "Wild Beast") in their use of colors. Frazer was among the very first Utah artists to employ abstract construction in her paintings.
