At the Chamberlain Rest Area we found the Dignity sculpture. This 50 foot sculpture of a Native American woman is depicted wearing a traditional star quilt. The 128 stainless steel blue diamond shapes were designed to flutter in the wind, but were not moving when we arrived. The quilt represents respect, honor and admiration in Native American culture.
I love the fact that even her leggings are decorated as most formal wear among Native Americans.
She is amazing! First quilt I’ve seen made of metal and the largest.

One of the more unique stops on the journey. Far more elaborate than I expected.
