Native American nod.








I have always had a fondness for everything Native American, and started collecting Navajo rugs in the early 1980's.
This quilt is made entirely of Japanese fabrics, some woven Daiwabo, all 100% cotton. The cross on the middle is a loosely woven hand dyed textile, and I chose to leave some of the selvedges exposed.
The backing is from Denyse Schmidt's Hope Valley line.
