Embroidered and patched quilt covers are rarely seen in ordinary places. This quilt cover is made up of 50 small pieces of embroidery patched together. Each small piece of embroidery has continuous complex exaggerated pattern of “phoenix and peony”, with a strong decorative flavor. The design of the pattern shows unique composition and a breakthrough in style. The whole quilt cover is brightly colored with simplistic artistic features.
