What is "patchwork"?

Patchwork is a sewing technique where small pieces of fabric, often in different colors, patterns, and shapes, are stitched together to create a larger design. The pieces, or "patches," are usually arranged in a planned pattern, like squares or triangles, and sewn into a larger block. Patchwork is commonly used in making quilts, but it can also be found in other items like clothing, bags, and home décor. The result is a visually interesting and often colorful piece that showcases a variety of fabric patterns and textures.
