Description
Full size quilt made by Mrs. Little in the 1950's. She was blind. The quilt is made up of 2.5" cotton squares. Each square is made up of 2 triangles. There seems to be no larger organized pattern. The backing and the trim are white. Mrs. Little hand stitched the top and gave it to Donna Whittemore Reeves for her kindness as a neighbor. They shared cookies together. Donna later had the backing and quilting done by a lady in Texas and used the quilt in her home for many years. She returned it to Pope County and the museum as a tribute to Mrs. Little.
