Sharon interviews Gail Thomas with her quilt, Someone Found.

Here's Gail's artist statement: In 1836 in Texas, Cynthia Ann Parker, age 9, was kidnapped, adopted, renamed Nadauh (someone found), and spent 24 years with the Comanche.  The Comanche consider children their most precious gift.  Her son, Quanah Parker, is called the Great Chief of the Comanche.  This quilt express the contrast and blending of two traditional cultures.
