Wholecloth whitework quilt
The Wholecloth whitework quilt by an unknown artist features a light-colored quilt with a square shape. The quilt showcases a design with a central octagonal motif surrounded by floral patterns. A border of wavy lines and flowers encircles the quilt. The entire quilt, including the inner and outer borders, features raised whitework embroidery on a white fabric background, creating a textured appearance with the designs made from the same color fabric as the base.
