Patchwork and Applique Quilt

Irene Schaefer

National Gallery of Art

The image displays an intricate design with a central star shape composed of concentric zigzag lines in various colors, radiating outward. The border of the piece is decorated with intertwining floral and vine-like patterns that complement the geometric center. The combination of sharp geometric lines and flowing natural motifs creates a dynamic visual.
