I have been waiting to come up with some cool ideas and also have been sidelioned with some personal thigns and haven't been focused on your advice. Now with the pw season coming up again I am feeling the itch and want to dance so badly but no outfit.
Any suggestions? I have no craft skill as I found out last year.

a grass dance outfit requirements

I make grass dance outfits...i let the people worry about the beadwork.
Aprons (front and back) w/ fringe- you could have designs on it or not...its up to you
Shirt with fringe sewed on...with ribbon too, its up to the person
Harness (beaded or not)
Belt w/ side drops (beaded or not)
pants w/ fringe sewed on...the way its sewed on varies
moccasins (beaded or not)
cuffs (beaded or not)
hand items (optional, things vary)
roach (required-lol)
headband w/ side drops (side drops optional)
above all else...all grass dance outfits differ...people could wear a lot of stuff...chockers, necklaces, breastplates...earrings...its up to the person...but everything above is just the BASIC needs of a outfit...
