This small quilt was made for Esmee Davies of Werris Creek NSW c. 1900. It is now in the collection of Annette Gero.
Small quilt probably made for a child's doll or for a pram. It is entirely made of white broderie anglaise pieced in a crazy patchwork style. There is a wide lace border around the quilt.
