Quilt Blocks - Applique Star 1935 - 1942

This is a quilt block design featuring four red and white stars on a green background, made between 1935 and 1942 by an anonymous artist. The star pattern is created through applique, where fabric pieces are layered and sewn onto a background fabric. The use of red and white, combined with the geometric shapes of the stars, suggests a sense of traditional American craftsmanship, a common theme in folk art. The design's simple elegance is representative of the popularity of quilting as a form of folk art, and a testament to the skill of the anonymous artist.
