The image shows a hand-woven wool bed quilt with floral and geometric patterns. The quilt predominantly features blue and white colors alternating throughout the design. In the lower left corner, the text "WILLIAM YERGIN WAYNE COUNTY OHIO 1852" is inscribed. Floral motifs are spread across the center, surrounded by borders with curls and star shapes. The corner detail and border patterns are visible at the bottom and left sides, with some scripted notes above and below the fabric design.
