Housecoat made from cotton and rayon fabrics in plain and floral printed designs, hand sewn and pieced over papers. The colours and prints have been arranged into diamond lozenge shapes, and the housecoat is lined with a pink floral figured fabric. It is thought the housecoat was made some time during the 1940s-50s, and was given to the donor in the 1960s.
