Default Dakota quilt

One if the ladies at quilting seniors yesterday showed this awesome quilt that she's been working on. She's part of a group making a special quilt display on the Dakota Indian tribe. Part of the meaning behind this quilt is that the tribe was split [black line] and they finally descended into confusion. The second picture is the original starting fabric... it's very blurry, but you can get the general idea.
