Goldie Tracy Richmond: Indian Trader and Quiltmaker

1999
Davis, Carolyn O'Bagy
United States
From Uncoverings 1999, Volume 20 of the Research Papers of the American Quilt Study Group
Carolyn O'Bagy Davis, a fourth-generation quilter, has written sev­eral books on quilting and women's history. She earned her B.A. degree in anthropology from the University of Arizona. She has curated a traveling Mimbres archaeology exhibit and one on "Quilt­ing from the Hopi Mesas." Carolyn's current research explores the cultural impact of Native American tribes on the quilts made by trading-post women in the Southwest.

​When AQSG added Uncoverings articles to the Quilt Index, they omitted all the illustrations, for lack of permissions. Although the articles found in the QI (1980-2010, 2012-2016) lack illustrations, they link to quilts, essays, special collections, and documentation projects across the Quilt Index, introducing them to a wider audience. The permission issues have since been resolved and in 2024, AQSG completed adding all the Uncoverings volumes from 1980-2023 to the Digital Commons@University of Nebraska-Lincoln. They are completely searchable and include all the illustrations. You can find, Uncoverings 1999, Volume 20, at this link, https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/aqsg-uncoverings/41/.
