The quilt showcases an exquisite display of colorful hexagonal patches, carefully sewn together with intricate needlework. Mowery's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this stunning piece. The multi-colored fabric choices create a visually captivating pattern that draws the viewer in. Each patch tells its own story, representing different fabrics from various periods and locations across America. As part of the Index of American Design collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this quilt serves as a cherished symbol of our nation's rich heritage and artistic legacy. It embodies both functionality and beauty, as it was designed not only for aesthetic pleasure but also for practical use. The combination of watercolor and graphite on paperboard adds depth and dimension to Mowery's creation, capturing the essence of each individual patch with remarkable accuracy. Whether displayed within an art gallery or adorning a country home, this Shaker Patchwork Quilt stands as a timeless masterpiece that continues to inspire awe today.
