Rugs: two braided multi-colored rugs; and one cloth pot holder. These three items were all made by GCI resident Addie Duren. Rug (A) is oval shaped, brightly colored reds, blues, purples, greys 46" long by 32.5" wide. Rug (B) is oval shaped, black and tan overall 56" long x 39" wide. There is a story that when the Duren house caught fire (19xx?), it was Addie's rags and rug-making materials stored in the attic that kept the fire from spreading rapidly through whole house. Pot holder (C) has crocheted edges with dancing girl and pink backing.
