content: Patchwork quilt top made of six broad whole-cloth strips and five narrow patchwork strips. The patchwork strips are made up of small square and triangular pieces in tans, browns, and dark blue. The strips on the two outer edges have a very distinctive leaf pattern on a lattice ground in off-white on brown, while the whole-cloth strips in the center are a small-scale floral in blue and tan on a brown ground.
