This photograph is included in a scrapbook that chronicles Frances Goodrich’s early years in western North Carolina. Frances Louisa Goodrich (1856-1944) was among the first to promote a revival of weaving in the North Carolina mountains, founding Allanstand Cottage Industries and later donating its assets to the newly formed Southern Highland Handicraft Guild. In this circa 1900s photograph, Rosie Hensley stands before a tufted bed cover. The photographer's name is unknown.
