Name this Pattern?

Pretty flowers
I bought a duvet cover at a local thrift store this weekend. I knew it had some kind of comforter in it but when I got it home and stripped off the cover to wash it, I found a nice little quilt inside. I know nothing about quilts but I know I love this one. :)
Just wondering if anyone can tell me something about the pattern and when it was popular? It's definitely worn on some of the appliques and some are torn. The edges are definitely worn and you can see some of the white batting at the edges. I would prefer to call it well loved!
I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas on how long this pattern has been around. It definitely has a very vintage feel to it.
The material used appears to be red (burgundy) dark green and some kind of peach colored gingham. The red and green have identical print, what appears to be oak leaves and a star to the right top of the oak leaves. The print on the colored fabric is solid black. It appears to be handstitched, as some of the stitching is not completely uniform. Every other square is what my friend calls white on white blocks with some kind of peony or rose flower and another kind of flower. At any rate, I think its charming...
