More Information

The pair of wall hangings are slightly faded and torn elements of appliqué. The long panel has elements of the appliqué needing re-stitching, and the blue parts of the design have faded badly, The other hanging is badly damaged at the bottom with the appliqué torn and missing and the pink cloth used for the figures at the top of this hanging has bled into the backing cloth. All hangings need specialist cleaning.
