About this piece
Red and yellow zigzags around a black and white heart.
Pakistan is the source of this cotton ralli, or patchwork quilt, made in the mid to late 20th century. Rallis are commonly built from patches of leftover fabric, and the geometry is part of the pleasure. Concentric zigzag bands in red, yellow and green surround small checkered diamonds, and a deep red frame holds the whole thing in. The bands are crisp and evenly stepped. The red and yellow rings sit in a clear rhythm across the whole surface.
About 80 by 52 inches. It hums quietly, in a good way.
