Quilt consisting of alternating tan and white wonky fabric rectangles, thickly encrusted with colorful appliques. Many of the overlapping appliques are vaguely star or floral shaped and almost all are outlined with strings of beads or trim. The individual blocks are outlined with beads and trim, as well. Nearly every bit of the quilt is outlined with beads and trim! Though I’m not sure it’s what the artist intended, the quilt feels beachy and celebratory to me, like if an oyster bed invited all the neighboring starfish over for a Mardi Gras party.
