			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5421" title="inspiration" src="http://emmacassi.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/inspiration.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" /></p>
<p>&#8220;The word Hmong means <strong>&#8220;Human being&#8221;</strong> or<strong>&#8220;Free People&#8221;</strong> in the Hmong language. Anthropologists trace their heritage as far back as Siberia and Central Asia. Although they lived in China for centuries, often as slaves, they fell victim to genocide and oppression. The Hmong have in time mostly settled in Burma, Laos, Thailand and Vietnam. In 1959 after the French defeat at Dien Bien Phu, Laotian civil war broke out. In addition to this displacement from their homeland, the Vietnam War caused further migration from their settled home. During the Vietnam War the Hmong fought with the United States against the Vietcong. However, after the war, when the United States withdrew from Vietnam and Laos, many of the Hmong escaped to Thailand by crossing the Mekong River. Although the Hmong have been mostly associated with the South East Asian countries, they have struggled to maintain their unique culture with a commitment to remain the &#8220;Free People&#8221; throughout their history.</p>
<p><strong>Each Quilt Block is a Work of Art</strong><br />
Every square is handmade by a Hmong hilltribe woman living in the remote hills of northern Laos using the reverse applique quilting method. The designs are traditional symbols for love, longevity, and life. Delicate accent embroidery adorns each square. &#8221;</p>
