The inspiration for this piece came from an antique quilt by Isabella Oliver dated between 1835 and 1840 which was exhibited at the Shipley Art Gallery in 1998. It is machine pieced with hand applique and hand quilting, and uses cotton fabrics and cotton wadding. Commissioned and presented by Region 13 (Cheshire, Lancashire, Merseyside, Isle of Man, North Wales and Greater Manchester).

A quilt from The Nineties Collection - quilts commissioned from quiltmakers working during the 1990s.
