Quilt

The image shows a quilt with a grid pattern comprised of thirty-five rectangles. Each rectangle contains a circular motif with geometric shapes. The abstract design within each circle consists of triangles and parallelograms arranged in a starburst or pinwheel pattern. These shapes create a visual rhythm. The quilt's colors are shades of red and pink on a light blue background. Each square is bordered by a quilted line.
