Created in 19th century America for Ella Maria Deacon, this appliquéd and pieced quilt is an extraordinary testament to the skill and creativity of its unknown creator. The quilt's intricate design features a harmonious blend of floral patterns and geometric shapes, meticulously crafted from dyed and printed plain weave cotton fabrics.
