Crazy patchwork quilt made from silks and velvets with embroidery embellishment over the seams and within the patches themselves. Each piece is heavily embroidered with floral designs or rows of different decorative stitches. This quilt was made by the companion to the donor's grandmother, aged 26, when they were living at No.1 London Wall.
