Inspiring Social Studies Curriculum: Hmong English-as-a-Second-Language Story Cloths

http://www.internationalfolkart.org/eventsedu/education/handmadeplanet/hmongstorycloth.html

I found this Social Studies Curriculum Plan on Hmong Story Clothmaking for English-language learners. It can be adjusted for all grade levels, including impoverished, adult, immigrant English-learners, I think.  It's similar to making a personal mandala or art journaling which would be more culturally sensitive and empowering for them.  Wouldn't this work well as a ghetto/barrio/inner city community quilting project too?
