Quilting Traditions in Radford Virginia Past and Present
In this project, Tom Fowler wished to document the history of the traditional method and reasons for quilting, and to answer the question of whether quilting is or will become a dying art. To do that, he interviewed Linda Libey and Kay Aker- quilters who use modern time-saving sewing techniques, and Edit Sutpin- who quilts who use traditional methods. This interview is among projects created by students enrolled in English 446 (initially English 452), “Appalachian Folklore,” 1981-2019, and in graduate level counterparts English 548 and 648 “Appalachian Folk Culture(s)” offered 17 fall semesters between 1987 and 2009. Minimally contain collector’s introduction and analysis, transcribed informant interviews, and excerpted and labeled examples of oral, customary, and/or material folklore/folklife collected primarily within the Appalachian region. Most include also tables of contents, informant information, indexes (outlines) of interviews, photographs, miscellaneous paper items, and indexes of informants, genres, and geographic locations. Accompanying audio recordings (several minutes to 2+ hours). Transferred to McConnell Library Archives & Special Collections from Appalachian Regional and Rural Studies Center, Fall 2013.- Creator
