Obama in it and use ethnic prints.
I looked online and I saw Obama panels and fat quarters, but all are in patriotic colorways. Are there ethnic prints that could match? The AfricanAm. prints I have seen have a lot of gold and greens in them. Has anyone made or seen anything like this? I would love any suggestions and pix anyone can offer. Thanks in advance. Jan
