10 Seminole Patchwork with Paper

This week , session 10 ,we’ll be making something that’s different than most of the patterns we’ve looked at. The session 10 design is a single beautiful motif that can be made by itself or in a band. Here’s a photo of the what we will be making. Choose your own colors and background if you like. I recommend that you try to decipher for yourself what the bands will look like, and check your analysis with the info I provide below. https://bookzoompa.files.wordpress.com/2024/01/4-b-w.jpg Here’s what is needed for this last class, if you are using the same colors as me. 15 strips to make 3 bands https://bookzoompa.files.wordpress.com/2024/01/strips-2.jpg Deep Blue: one, 4 units wide Black: one 4 units wide, three 2 units wide Deep Purple : one 4 units wide, one 2 units wide Light Purple: two 4 units wide, two 2 units wide Light blue-gray: one 4 units wide, three 2 units wide Here’s the photo of the set up of the colors. You will need two pages of the number two or the master lines to make the bands. https://bookzoompa.files.wordpress.com/2024/01/pxl_20240117_203008413.jpg Full Video Playlist is https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLquvbWQgdv10ngPAX0ExTZulqyXRweMsj&si=HNhcC80-ooaA0i0W Class Pinterest Board https://www.pinterest.com/bookzoompa/seminole-patchwork-with-paper/ PDF of Master lines https://bookzoompa.files.wordpress.com/2024/01/master-pattern-lines.pdf If you are just getting started, with this technique, watch https://youtu.be/L9GV-NzTudE As this will be the last session, the final discussion of the Seminoles is about what I know about them in the present. Throughout this exploration of their patterns I’ve talked about their ability to be resilient and creative in the face of hardships such being attacked, robbed of their land, hunted down, and marginalized. In the 1930’s they began to be offered some protections and reparations.
