Just finished a t-dress and sent it to San Antonio, got another one on the machine as we speak. Gotta be there by Saturday.
After that, 2 dresses for incoming Otoe Princess, ribbonwork for my neice - Sandy T., Leggins for 1 straight dancer, 2 pair for my son - a tradish dancer, shirts for my husband, son and friend. Plus trying to get some stuff ready for San Antonio - want to set up a booth.
Other than that - lots of time on by hands. Wish I could post pictures, but we are "technology challenged" - no digital camera or scanner. If you want pictures - I will be happy to snail mail until I can afford more computer stuff.
I'd like to see it... since it really wouldn't be cost effictive to mail to everyone.. maybe you could mail a set to someone with a scanner then they could post them for you.. just a thought.:)

Thought about it but that's about as far as I got. Trying to scrape up enough cash - left over from orders - to buy my own and deduct it as office expense. Still scrapin 'aybe in a month or so.....unless you are willing to help.
I'm still working on the beadwork to go with a dress a friend helped me out with last year. So far I have my belt bag set, hair ties, necklace, and dance purse completed. All I have left to do are the leggings and moccs. It looks like I'll be wearing the ol' hightops for a while longer.
Just made new hairbarrettes for my daughter. 3 sets. my fingers hurt.. hehehehe have a couple of dresses on the machine, and needing a couple of new shawls, lots to do and not enough hours in a day...:Chatter sounds like everyone is working hard for the season.:)

i have finished most of my beadwork except my mocs and leggins...i have to make 4 dresses by may and finish the app work on my 3 shawls and finish the fringe 2!! I am going nutz doing this stuff!....I CAN SEE IS BEADS EVERYWHERE!:Eyepopper
I recently tried to post some pics in the gallery and it wouldn't let me. I noticed the same photos have been up for a while as the recently posted ones....is there some sort of problem going on with the gallery?
Greetings,
I am having difficulty finding good pictures of cheyenne beadwork. If anyone knows of any links, or if you have pictures of your own, posting them here would be much appreciated.
I know there are some books with beadwork patterns have a whole list of them but i was wondering if anyone knew of place online that might have some Lakota patterns for bead work i would like to add to my quiver...
