Apple, Ph.D. Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences Approved: __________________________________________________________ Carolyn A. Thoroughgood, Ph.D. Vice Provost for Research and Graduate Studies ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The story of Marguerite Porter Davison is, at its basic level, about a woman who loved to weave. However, she is one of a larger group of weavers who found their expression in art, and her legacy is part of a larger continuum of work. I hope that this study will help encourage others to look into the stories of the craft revival though the study of both the careers of its participants and the objects these individuals made and collected. This research project has been a fascinating part of my life since it began in April of 2006. First, I’d like to thank Linda Eaton, Curator of Textiles at the Winterthur Museum and my adviser, for introducing me to Davison’s work. Her guidance, knowledge, and encouragement have been of great help in shaping this paper. I am also indebted to Mrs. Sue Davison Cooley, Marguerite Porter Davison’s daughter, for connecting me with objects and documents in her collection. By inviting me to visit her and allowing me to conduct an oral history interview, Mrs. Cooley has enriched this work and helped me gain another layer of understanding her mother’s life and work. Mrs. Cooley’s assistant, Jeanne Becker, has also been helpful and informative. iii Those who studied Davison and her collections in the past have also greatly contributed to the thesis. Among these individuals is Mrs. Elizabeth Cooley, Sue Davison Cooley’s husband’s sister-in-law, whose interest in Davison has informed my work. I’d also like to thank the handweavers who responded to my call for questionnaire responses for their input. The Handweaving Study Group that catalogued Davison’s Collection of Pennsylvania Linens at Winterthur has also provided me with information to interpret, and deserve thanks for their contributions. Among the other institutions that helped this research are the Millersville University Ganser Library Special Collections Department in Millersville, Pennsylvania and the Handweaving Museum and Arts Center in Clayton, New York. These institutions generously allowed me access and photographic privileges concerning their materials. The faculty, staff, and my fellow fellows at the Winterthur Museum also deserve thanks; these teachers and colleagues have been a constant source of inspiration. Finally, thanks to my spouse, family, and friends for their untiring encouragement. iv DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to my spouse, Robert Winkeler. His thoughtful feedback and editing assistance throughout this project was invaluable. His support and friendship over the past ten years is a precious gift. v TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES......................................................................................................vii ABSTRACT ..................................................................................................................ix Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION.............................................................................................. 1 Defining Phases of the Handweaving Revival .......................................... 3 Review of Literature on the Handweaving Revival. ................................. 4 Goals of this Study .................................................................................... 8 Organization of Thesis ............................................................................ 10 2 THE HANDWEAVING REVIVAL IN AMERICA: INFLUENCES, INDIVIDUALS AND PHASES....................................................................... 11 Influence: The Arts and Crafts Movement.............................................. 11 Influence: The Colonial Revival ............................................................. 15 Participants in the Handweaving Revival ............................................... 18 Phases of the Handweaving Revival ........................................... 20 The Traditional Phase.................................................................. 21 The Transitional Phase ................................................................ 28 The Modern Phase....................................................................... 33 Conclusions ............................................................................................. 37 3 THE ROLE OF EDUCATION AND THE ROLE OF FAMILY .................... 38 Family Background ................................................................................. 38 Berea College and the Beginnings of Davison's Design Philosophy...... 41 Changes and Travel................................................................................. 49 Home in America .................................................................................... 54 Conclusions ............................................................................................. 55 4 BUILDING A COLLECTION AND BUILDING A CAREER ...................... 57 The Love of Research.............................................................................. 57 Collecting Historic Woven Objects......................................................... 60 Acquiring the Laura Allen Collection..................................................... 75 Craftsmanship and New Weaves from Old............................................. 76 vi Exhibiting Her Weavings ........................................................................ 81 Conclusions ............................................................................................. 84 5 SHARING HER KNOWLEDGE AND WRITING HER LEGACY............... 86 Teaching Others to Weave ...................................................................... 86 Early Writing........................................................................................... 89 Writing A Handweaver's Pattern Book................................................... 99 Becoming a Publisher and Promoting Her Books................................. 107 Laura Allen and A Handweaver's Source Book .................................... 114 Conclusions ........................................................................................... 116 6 CONCLUSIONS AND DAVISON'S LEGACY TODAY............................. 117 Survey of Weavers ................................................................................ 117 Conclusions ........................................................................................... 127 Appendix A QUESTIONNAIRE FOR HANDWEAERS .................................................. 131 B FIGURES 1-24............................................................................................... 133 BIBLIOGRAPHY ...................................................................................................... 158 PERMISSIONS .......................................................................................................... 167 vii LIST OF FIGURES Figure 1: Page from the Scrapbooks of Laura Allen: Popular Mechanics, Mar.1919: “Reviving Handicrafts in America.” .................................. 134 Figure 2: Swatch from Seven Projects in Rosepath as woven by the Associated Handweavers: project I 4, Twill by M.

The Lida Calvert Hall/Obenchain/McMillan Collection is a large Privately held collection of many items of historic significance. The Collection is wide ranging in its content, from rare French Furniture pieces to Books and Manuscripts. The Collection consists of 5 generations of the Calvert Hall/Obenchain/McMillan and Godwin Families. The Story of this Collection starts with Eliza (Lida) Calvert Hall; Eliza Caroline "Lida" Obenchain (née Calvert), (February 11, 1856 - December 20, 1935) was an American author, women's rights advocate, and suffragist from Bowling Green, Kentucky. Lida Obenchain, writing under the pen name Eliza Calvert Hall, was widely known early in the twentieth century for her short stories featuring an elderly widowed woman, "Aunt Jane", who plainly spoke her mind about the people she knew and her experiences in the rural south. Lida Obenchain's best known work is ‘Aunt Jane of Kentucky’ which received extra notability when United States President Theodore Roosevelt recommended the book to the American people during a speech, saying, "I cordially recommend the first chapter of Aunt Jane of Kentucky as a tract in all families where the menfolk tend to selfish or thoughtless or overbearing disregard to the rights of their womenfolk”. In the Collection, we possess a number of letters that President Roosevelt sent to Lida praising her work, one on White House Stationary and others from when he left office.

  • Woven Coverlets Tell Story of Past
    Woven Coverlets Tell Story of Past Nancy Ostman, February 22, 2014 Photo caption: This 1832 woven coverlet was made by Archibald Davidson, a Scottish weaver who came to Ithaca in the late 1820s. Woven coverlets made in the U.S. pre-Civil War era were used as bed coverings. They were made of wool and cotton (or occasionally wool and linen) on floor looms by hand. Coverlets were woven of two or more colors, made to be reversible with a light and dark color pattern showing as a negative on the back side. The earliest era of coverlet making, judging from surviving pre-Revolutionary War period to 1820 examples, was a household craft practiced by women or itinerant weavers who used narrow looms that produced simple geometric designs. The boom in coverlet making was fueled by Joseph Marie Jacquard’s 1801 invention of a computer-like attachment to looms which picked up each warp (lengthwise) thread individually. This meant that elaborate “fancy” patterns could be woven. To make fancy coverlets, an expensive loom attachment was required. Thus, most coverlet making between 1820 and 1860 was generally practiced by men, who wove for clients in solitary to 6-person “factories” or workshops. Many weavers were born and trained in Europe. These Scotch, Irish, English, Dutch, and Germans came to the U.S. to practice their trade, as they were pushed out of business in Europe, where the industrial revolution occurred earlier than in the U.S. Once in the U.S., immigrant weavers often moved beyond coastal cities, where industrialization already had begun, to rural towns of New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.

A Killing Gentleman page 27 The dueling ground was familiar territory for Alexander McClung, the feared Black Knight of the South. Plus: Our Lincoln Triumphs Photography by Don Ament Extraordinary Kentuckians—Famous, and Not Dear Friends, On pages 34-35 of this issue of Kentucky Humanities, you’ll see a report on Our Lincoln, the musical and dramatic extravaganza we presented in February to mark the beginning of Kentucky’s celebration of Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday. Forgive our immodesty, but we think it was terrific, and a sold-out house at the Singletary Center for the Arts in Lexington seemed to agree. Lincoln, Kentucky’s greatest son, is the most written-about American who ever lived. His greatness is unquestioned, and it’s appropriate for the Council and the Commonwealth to go all out for his bicentennial on February 12, 2009. Over the next two years, we will try to help Kentuckians gain a deeper understanding of Lincoln and his legacy—Lin- coln project grants, Chautauqua performances in communities and schools, and special publications are some of the ways we’ll do it. But if the list of extraordinary Kentuckians begins with Lincoln, it hardly ends with him. In this issue of our magazine, you’ll meet a worthy but largely forgotten member of the extraordinary Kentuckians club—a compelling “unknown” named Eliza Calvert Hall.
