<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DragonflyWink, post: 393312, member: 111&quot;]Nice - when I was a teen in &#039;70s Florida, before gambling became their big business, there were still a few Seminoles at roadside chickees selling these, along with jackets, etc., and lots of other stuff, like baskets and the little palmetto fiber dolls in patchwork clothes (have sold quite a few dolls over the years, the early ones can bring really good prices), and the ladies would be sitting at their sewing machines making the patchwork.&nbsp; Have little doubt yours is Seminole-made, with some decent age to it.</p><p><br /></p><p>To make the designs, long narrow strips of are fabric sewn together, then those strips cut into small crosswise pieces, and those pieces rearranged, often diagonally, to form the patterns - they have names, but the only one I can recall from your apron is the bottom blue &amp; yellow strip, pretty sure it&#039;s &#039;lightning&#039;...</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
