This stunning bedcover, featuring a star pattern, dates back to the late 19th century in the United States. The exact creator of this piece remains unknown, adding to its intriguing history. The bedcover is backed with a cotton plain weave fabric and pieced with smaller cotton plain weave printed panels. The star motif is prominently displayed in a geometric design, with each star formed by a diamond motif. The bedcover is quilted, showcasing the skillful handiwork of its maker. The bedcover's color palette is simple yet elegant, with a predominantly white background accented by shades of red, blue, and green. The use of needlework adds texture and depth to the design, making it a true work of art.
