Member file: Mrs. C. G. Hodges, knotwork
Item
-
These documents pertain to the life and work of Mrs. C.G. Hodges (first name unknown), who specialized in making Colonial Knot bedspreads, also called candle wicking, with elaborate fringes. Included are the transcript of an interview of Mrs. Hodges done by Edward DuPuy in 1965; an autobiographical letter (and transcript) written for Louise Pitman in the 1950s; and a Southern Highland Handicraft Guild questionnaire completed in 1957. Hodges was born and raised in Boone, North Carolina. Her family traced its origins to England and Ireland, as did her craft work. In both the interview and letter, Hodges describes using the carbon from the bottom of pots and pans in order to transfer the pattern. By laying a new piece of linen over an older piece of knotted work, the knots sit up and catch the carbon from the pans as dots that show where the new stitching goes. Hodges and her daughter demonstrated at craft fairs for many years.
