Applique Quilt

The painting depicts a floral pattern with a symmetrical design. It features a square layout with alternating red flowers and green leaves forming a repetitive pattern. The outer border has a continuous green vine with red flowers, enclosing the inner area. The center is organized into a grid of smaller squares, each containing stylized flowers and leaves. The color scheme includes reds and greens on a neutral background, creating an elegant and traditional style. This is reminiscent of the style of William Morris.
