White quilt made from six large squares of different designs of woven white fabric, possibly tablecloth pieces, edged with a wide light/faded pink border. the reverse is plain linen, and there is a woven name tape with text in red which reads 'Westmont Women's Club War Work Committee'. It is likely that this piece was made as part of the war effort during the Second World War and sent across to England, like those made by other women's groups and charitable organisations.
The Quilters' Guild Collection is held by The Quilters’ Guild of the British Isles.
