The Garden was created in 1933 by Josephine (Emma) Craig and is 86" x 85".  Josephine earned national fame in the 1930s when she won the 1936 Eastern States Exposition held in Storrowton, Mass.  It was one of the first national quilt contests.  It was inspired by an antique quilt described in Ruth Finley's 1929 book,  Old Patchwork Quilts and the Women Who Made Them, as "the acme of the art of applique."  At the Kansas State Fair it was rated by the judges as "100-percent perfect."

The quilt is currently part of the collection of the Kansas State Historical Society.
