For sale on behalf of Save the Children charity:


A kindly donated unique hand made vintage Childs cotton patchwork and embroidered coat, possibly from the '50s judging by the prints used. It is lined in a plain calico type cotton, and the length has been altered at some point. Each patch and seam is outlined in hand embroidery in different colours. There are three metal flower buttons at the front, hand made buttonholes and a pink frill around the neck.

The interior shows two slight patches of slight staining/bleed through from colour run from the exterior patches. There are also two side belt loops, but no belt. The lower hem edge has a couple of patches of very slight wear, but it is otherwise in a fair condition.


Measurements are:

Total back neck to hem: 75cm

Underarm circumference: 65CM


I estimate it would fit a 3-4 year old.


This is a truly unique piece and deserves to find an owner who will appreciate the unique character and creativity in this coat.


PRICE: £35.00, from SE3
