From the Yorkshire Post:

 

"The patchwork quilt was discovered in a sacristy cupboard at St Bartholomew’s Church at Marsden, near Huddersfield, during a clean-up for the church’s reopening as Covid restrictions eased.

 

Church warden Val France said: “We were having a clearout and I thought what on earth’s this? There was a bit of plastic sheeting, I pulled it out and unravelled it all and just couldn’t believe it."
