DescriptionThe quilter is Annie R. (Little) Mangumn (1900-1989). She was the great aunt of the owner of the quilt, Lillie Johnson Edwards. Having worked in domestic service all of her life in Columbus, GA, and then in Ohio, Aunt Annie returned to Georgia to help care for her parents circa 1950. Her quilts were made from household fabrics, usually discarded clothes and other household items. The back of the quilt is made from cane sugar and flour sacks. Faint traces of lettering remain on the back. Most of her quilts were hand pieced as is this one. This quilt was used as bedding.
