This quilt block shows a golden bench against a blue salmon-patterned background. The bench's slats are made out of a golden orange fabric. The legs are curved to the right, and each ends in two curved feet that curl upwards towards the seat of the bench. The legs are much darker brown than the bench in a very complementary color. The whole bench is outlined with a bright yellow and orange fabric stitching, giving it a sort of glow. Perched on top of the bench is a yellow bird with a drawn beak and eyes in pen. It appears to be chirping.

I can see two old friends, retired, meeting here everyday around 11:00 to sit on this bench and play checkers or chess together.
