This c. 1910s brochure from Mountain Cabin Quilters marketed quilts produced by this North Carolina cottage industry. The text reads, “Many mountain women have never before had any money of their own. Now they earn it by doing beautiful work with their toil-scarred fingers....they do not hesitate to walk or ride 10 miles to get their order for a quilt.” Image used with permission of Hunter Library Digital Collections at Western Carolina University
