At the Canadian Museum of History, a large quilt is on display. It was made by volunteers with the Women's Auxiliary of the Anglican Diocese in Fort Qu'Appelle, Saskatchewan as a fundraiser in 1933. The names of the volunteers are stitched into the quilt's 30 squares.
A quilt displayed in a glass case within a museum or exhibition setting. The quilt features intricate blue stitching patterns, including floral designs and swirling lines, on a light-colored fabric. In the center, there is a small embroidered image of an elephant. Surrounding the quilt are informational panels with text. The lighting highlights the quilt's detailed craftsmanship against a dark background.
