I know those colors bud[the words etc.].Love those opaque light colored beads.Glad you got someone to bead for ya.It''ll look stunning.I'm sure you can see it right now long before it's done.
Hey my big old smoked buck hide I did a build-a-long on got completely soaked to wringing wet here the other day.It dried back down within a day and is as soft as ever again.I'll make something out of that someday.

Oh lord, I sure wanna see what you come up with!
Always loved Native American style apparel, most of all when it's traditionally handmade from start to finish 😊

Yes hand sewn. By the time period of the shirt traders had already gotten linen thread and needles into the tribal people.
I started one shoulder and  :o got one skin backwards. Oh well. Ain't stuck my self YET.
I will post as I go.

ok, started painting. Colors are off. Hide colors different. Am I thinking to Contemporary ? :o

At Top Of The Rock  in the museum there is a shirt painted these colors so far. Ran out of green , but more coming. I am sure the western Indians had the same effect.

I kind of like the difference of the added color and the color of the brain tan.
