The American Indian tribe known as the Seminole occupied much of what is now Florida. After many years of war there was a period of peace beginning after 1858 where the Seminole were able to return to family life. It was during this time that the Seminole women created an art form using a new patchwork method of sewing. Through the years, the patchwork design became very popular, not only on Seminole clothing but also on their handmade dolls, beadwork, and baskets. Today it is a reflection of the Seminole heritage and usually worn only for special occasions and important ceremonies. This book focuses on the Seminole custom of crafting patchwork. It contains several activities, including easy directions for making a patchwork bookmark and a simple recipe for wild grape dumplings. Young readers will enjoy learning about the Seminole culture as they read this brief but enlightening book. The many photographs and illustrations enhance the already-informative text. This book is highly recommended for any middle reader's study of Native Americans. It concludes with a glossary, index, and list of sources for additional information. It is part of the "America's First People" series.

- v***v (2054)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
