Description
This single fold brochure was designed to promote the quilts being made by "mountain women" in the Cashiers area of North Carolina. Their quilts were sold through the Allanstand Cottage Industries shop in Asheville, N.C. during the 1910s and 1920s. The brochure describes the homes in which the quilts are made, the rigorous standards for quality control, and the ways in which the income from the quilts helped the women and their families.
