Physical Description

A white cotton cloth with a central yellow roundel containing a sprig of wattle in the centre and circled by the text "Centenary Montacute Carnival 1946". Lists of names embroidered in stem stitch in two different blue cotton threads surround the central motif. The wattle, flowers and stem are worked in satin stitch, and the leaves in diagonal satin stitch in yellow, green and brown cotton threads respectively. The cloth has been mounted on fabric-covered foam core or board by Artlab.
