A monochrome embroidered design featuring an hourglass with a skeleton inside, symbolizing the passage of time and mortality. The skeleton is seated with a contemplative pose, detailed with fine satin stitches to highlight the bones and hourglass structure. The hourglass is positioned centrally, with the skeleton's skeletal form filling the lower half, creating a stark contrast against the dark background. The design uses shades of grey for depth and texture, with intricate threadwork to mimic the glass and skeletal details.
