Singletary, Annie Lee

Abstract:

Singletary discusses the work and creations of Lillian Mills Mosseller and her son Ronald of Tryon, who make rugs by combining fine art with the ancient Appalachian craft of rug punching. Their work has been exhibited in numerous art galleries; their rugs are in the Lincoln, Grant, and McKinley rooms at the Smithsonian; and one rug was made for President Franklin D. Roosevelt's Little White House at Warm Springs, GA.
