A friend, who is a member of a local tribe and enjoys traditional basket making, gave me images of local basketry patterns, which I am converting to quilting patterns. Some of the names are delightful, such as "grizzly, his paw" and "frog fingers". Are any of you doing cross media design work?

I'm not but it sure sounds interesting. Please show us your results, I'd love to see what you come up with!

Some are very simple. Several occur in many tribe's artwork. One is the same as delectible mountains. Some are interesting for the names. Many have no known name.

Very interesting! Would love to see more.

sorry, I promised not to until I make a quilt for the person who gave me the patterns.

These are going to be very interesting. Will be watching for your finished projects.

a very interesting project... looking forward to the results.

Fair trade. :)

That's okay, a deal is a deal but we'll be watching for that first finished quilt! Thanks for sharing a couple of the images, they are interesting to see.

I am drafting some Fretwork/scroll saw patterns into quilts!
