About this piece
Red stars on white, plain and strong as a flag.
Women’s hands in Pakistan commonly make rallis like this one, a cotton patchwork quilt of the mid to late 20th century. Pieced and appliqued rallis are traditionally made at home and used on beds, benches and floors. Repeating star shapes in solid red are pieced against a white ground, with a red inner edge. The stars touch at their points, forming a lattice of white diamonds between them. The red is strong and even.
About 78 by 50 inches. It makes a crisp room warmer.
