Patchwork Bedspread Material
c. 1936
Frances Lichten created this vibrant floral design around 1936, envisioning it as material for a 'Patchwork Bedspread.' Lush red roses and exotic lilies burst forth against a geometric brown lattice, creating a delightful contrast between wild garden blooms and structured order. As a designer during the Great Depression, Lichten often worked to bring affordable beauty into American homes, and this pattern captures the optimistic, colorful spirit of 1930s textile design.
