| - Woman's petticoat, Great Britain, 1730-1770; yellow silk, lined with wool, quilted in a diamond pattern (en)
- A woman’s petticoat of yellow silk taffeta, lined with glazed wool in a yellow, green and white woven check. The upper back of the petticoat is lined with green wool twill. The petticoat is quilted in running stitch with yellow silk thread in a diamond pattern, about ⅝-inch (1.5 cm) square, wadded with a layer of thin wool. Eight panels of yellow silk make up the petticoat, the lining fabrics are pieced. The hem is bound with ⅝-inch wide (1.5 cm) yellow silk taffeta ribbon.
The petticoat was altered, probably in the 18th century, probably for a taller wearer. The waist bindings were removed and a strip of yellow flannel added, front and back. None of the replacement bindings survive, only modern tape and a hook and eye, added by Textile Conservation for mounting and display. (en)
