Hexagon Quilt made from printed and plain cotton fabrics, arranged in the 'Grandmothers Flower Garden' design with a path of rose pink with blue printed hexagons. It is hand quilted and the hexagons were constructed by piecing over papers. At some point the quilt has been damaged ad rejoined, forming a seam and a mismatch of the hexagon rosettes. It was found in the Manchester area.
