Applique Quilt

Catherine Fowler

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a quilt with a pattern consisting of nine large square blocks, each featuring different floral and leafy designs, bordered by a blue strip along the top and left edge. The quilt's color palette includes a mix of red, blue, beige, green, and brown with hints of pink and orange. The blocks are arranged in a three-by-three grid, with three blocks horizontally and vertically, while the quilt itself is positioned flat with a slight fold at the top.
