That is the most common question I hear nowadays, even from a Seminole. I
remember about 10-13 years ago, I went to the cultural class that was
started up by our Education department here on the Hollywood reservation. I
was at home with two small kids to raise so this was my chance to learn how
to make patchwork and to make some extra money on the side while I wasn't
working.

I hoped someday to start sewing full time. I love making my patchwork and
to let people know I could. It would be something that I could teach my
kids some day when they got older. ...
