Silk patchwork coverlet in a baby blocks mosaic pieced design, with a floral printed fringe on three sides. The fringe is 12 cm deep and was printed in 1930 on an ALJABA machine, and could therefore be a later addition. Although there is no quilting, the layers are tied together at regular intervals.
