Southern Highland Handicraft Guild

These three documents outline the standards of quality adopted by the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild in 1943 and applied to those seeking membership in the Guild. Since its inception in 1930, membership in the Guild has been juried. In the early years, there was much discussion about how to define "craft" and what was considered "quality" work. Clementine Douglas, Frances Goodrich, and Lucy Morgan constituted the Guild's the first Membership and Standards Committee, which was responsible for establishing quality standards such as these.
