(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-10-26)

I'd like some help figuring out what this embroidery says, if it says anything at all. It's allegedly from China, but I don't have access to the physical object, just a few photos.

Random characters I can sort of pick out:

* Upper right: 豕(?)常
* Upper left (and again somewhere in the middle): 中
* Near the top of both left and middle: 王
* Several on the right (not in a row): 窗, 月, and 有
* Signature: 豈 (and something else)

The level of illegibility is such that I'm not entirely sure I believe that all of these are characters, but someone (somewhere) went to the trouble of sewing it.
