History
The maker is unknown. This cot quilt was purchased by Perth resident Marie Hobbs from a second hand charity shop and was thought to date from the 1940s. Marie used it as a crawling rug for her grandchildren and later donated it to The Pioneer Women's Hut in New South Wales [where] it is displayed occasionally.
Description
Cot quilt. Single piece of floral cotton material top and back (cream background with coloured flowers). The padding is a single layer, twill weave, heavy bag, probably jute. The layers are fixed with a different coloured button in each corner. Machine quilted across the centre.
