How does the imagery in this excerpt affect the passage?
The quilt was full of color and made of fabrics with no discernible pattern, just like her grandmother’s flower bed and vegetable garden. Its green center held the snap peas, okra, and fresh greens that she and her grandmother tended every year. The gold rosettes surrounding the green were the marigolds that kept the rabbits at bay, and the bright red corners were the rows of radishes and beds of roses that Regina tended and loved so well.
