I am looking for some Cherokee design inspiration for loomwork. Any suggestions?

When you are born into this world you reach for either a bow and quiver, which is blessed by the Sun, our Grandfather, or you reach for an awl and sewing bag, which is blessed by the moon, our Grandmother. From that time on you will follow that vision and be blessed. -
I don't know really what Cherokee designs look like, but try on the internet under Cherokee designs or jus cherokee. -
Thank you very much for your attempt at helping me, but an internet search on the word "cherokee" takes you to the Jeep website and I'm interested in beadwork not a new car! :rainbw:
I've found one very good website on Cherokee beadwork by Martha Berry who does bandolier bags and other absolutely gorgeous things. She does applique work in florals and swirling patterns that aren't well suited for loomwork. Hence, my question. You can look at her site here:

I have been assigned a college research paper that must be done on a culture to which I do not belong. I chose the Cherokee. I would need to ask a couple of question about the culture (what you do, what the social norms are, any particular group of things that are special to the tribe, etc.)

I have run into more Cherokees at powwows than almost any other tribe. The Cherokee host two excellent powwows: The Cherokee 4 of July Powwow in Cherokee, North Carolina and the Cherokee Holiday Powwow in Tahlequah, Oklahoma.

Won't bore anyone with details, but was told years ago to go to Kansas and follow my instincts in searching for a Cherokee Grandmother. I m not the greatest internet searcher, LOL. Just curious if anyone would be able/willing to share any links/knowledge on Cherokee in Kansas.
