Rhea Granger Quilt Square - 1928

Quilt Collection

Square patch from an unassembled quilt by Thomasville native Rhea Granger, 1928. Granger used backing and padding made from flour bags and newspapers. The latest newspaper article indicates the pieces were assembled after 1930. Adhesive Velcro strips were added sometime after the 1970s to piece the quilt together for use and display.
