"Quilt," created in 1937 by Marie Alain, exemplifies a traditional American quilting style. The piece features a central grid of nine squares, each containing a vibrant floral motif. The border, composed of repeating vine-like patterns, adds a whimsical touch. The overall design is a testament to Alain's skill in creating a visually captivating and harmonious composition. The bold colors and detailed stitching showcase the artistry of quilting, a craft deeply rooted in American history and tradition.
