I dont know if you plan any machine embroidery in your quilt, but Embroidery Library has some really beautiful Native American designs. I just used some of them in a teepee I made for my grandsons for Christmas. If you look under the pictures section, you can see it. I posted around Dec 28 or 29.

btw.....I have always been interested in the Native American culture, I think it so spiritual and beautiful!

It's more of a technique book that shows how to make various circle quilts and if nothing else might give you some great ideas.

Try cheryl phillips, Quilts without corners. She has circle quilts and some called Hopi Sun patterns. I did several and enjoyed the process. You can even learn the bargello pattern.
