Keen Shawls!?!?!

[GoodDay]

Just wanted to know who ya'll think have keen shawls and beadwork?

[BeadedPony]

Cathy Johnson from Pittsburgh, PA has some of the most gorgeous outfits - fully beaded vest with matching beadwork and exquisite applique work. Most of her shawls are double-sided and really are magnificent. Besides, she's a great dancer! :)

Here on the East Coast Cepa Sparks and Mikki Blake both have awesome shawls. There was another girl that lived in Maryland and moved back to New York and now I forgot her name but I am sure Jingle Jammer can help me remember.

There are so many nice outfitts out there in pow wow country....where do I begin? Well here in Canda I've seen some nice shawls and beadwork.....Lisa Ewack of course, she has some nice beaded outfits.....Candace Gadwa has some real nicely sewn shawls...Sara Milward makes such awesome beadwork and shawls to match....Shawna Kaisawatum makes nice shawls with some nice abstact designs.....The ones that I really notice are colours and designs I've never really seen before..abstract......not the same old geometrical or neon colours that just anyone can use. I realize that alot of dancers use similar designs and colours but its even better when they can add or create their own patterns instead going by whats 'in' for that year. I'm not too crazy about neon. It looks nice when used in designs or outlines...but not a whole shawl or dress...too bright. Always reminds me of construction guys who have to wear the stuff. :)

I'd have to say that Jocy Bird has very unique shawls and outfits.

I like Jetta Woods outfits, she knows her colors and the designs just seem to mesh well. ~*~S.Y.~*~ ;)

I totally agree Shawna does have some excellent choices for her shawls. She uses great designs and also has some nice embroidary stitching on her shawls (trademark) I had the opportunity to see this when I saw her at a pow-wow in Popular, MT, USA . She also uses good colours(very eye-pleasing) But I have to give props to all the other ladies out there also!! Keep up the good work girls!!

Does anyone have any pics of these nice shawls?
