It was a show-stopper at show and tell last week, as we admired and examined every bit - the fussy cutting, the stitching, the quilting on the delicately printed border, and its overall appeal.
It is now back in use on a bed, on the other side of the world - wouldn’t its maker be pleased, and possibly astonished?
