Our Coverlet Comes Home

by Epworth Old Rectory on September 22nd, 2025 in blog

We are excited to see the return of our historic coverlet which has recently been in undergoing some important conservation work with Landi Company Textile Conservation Ltd.  The quilt was thought to have been made in the early 1800’s by the Bolton sisters, one of whom, Ann, was referred to by John Wesley as ‘sister of my choice’ The work has been supported by a grant from the AIM Pilgrim Trust Collections Care Scheme and we thank them for their help on this project.
