This scene from STITCHES is taken from Chapter 6. 

Spence Collins comes home to find his wife,Jean, sitting on the living room floor in front of an old chest that she purchased from an estate sale earlier in the afternoon. Jean has just discovered a piece of unusual fabric underneath a false bottom in the chest just before Spence walks in.

“This is lovely, honey. I hope you’re not thinking of keeping it in the house,” Spence said and laughed.

“I know, right? But I don’t think it was a mistake to buy it. You've got to see what I found inside.”

Spence sat on the hassock, between the two love seats, as she pulled the bundle out of the bottom of the chest. She unfolded it on the carpet and slowly turned it to face Spence.

“Oh my God!”

“Can you believe this? I said the same thing too.”

The fabric was approximately eighteen inches square. The red-plumed heads of three large pheasant-like birds were turned toward their viewer, their eyes were alert questioning. The reflective quality of the material gave the illusion the birds’ eyes were real. The feathers graduated in a luminescent spray of sparkling turquoise, bright gold, rich pumpkin, and chestnut brown. Deep-green vines, with delicate white flowers, swirled around the rich vanilla background. Jean crawled around on the floor to view it from different angles. Spence continued to stare at it, too, speechless.
