"The Poppy quilt was made by Randy O'Phelan. She designed it from the book, 101 Patchwork Patterns. Her first quilt, mid-60s. She used black fabric instead of green. She could not find a poppy leaf green, which she described as having gray tones. Her mother had an oriental black lacquer bow front chest, and from that she chose black to go with the orange color."
