Patchwork Quilt

Alois E. Ulrich

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a quilt fragment with a cross design in red, intersecting squares and diamonds in beige. The border is blue with a pattern resembling stars or dots, accentuated by red blocks at the top corners. The color palette includes blue, red, and beige against a light background. The cross divides the quilt into four sections, each containing a quilted diamond shape, framed by the blue border.
