Mary Youngman (Sioux) sewed for the Levi Strauss Company during World War II. Here five-star pattern in “Indian Five Star” (1968-1975) became her signature design. “This is the way these colors speak to me.” In describing her work as a quilter at the end of her life, she said, “Now, my eyesight is almost gone. I am sad not to be able to quilt anymore.”
