I am not making Fabric a political issue.....just my observations about the Native American/SouthWest lines. So I pretty much stick to the general geometric patterns I find here and there.

Here is an interesting article about kokopelli:

Thank you for site. I never really knew too much about it. I agree about the fabric designs.
