Abstract

Beadwork & Quillwork Cole Redhorse Taylor (Mdewakanton Dakota) finds a balance between the natural and the man-made. From there, multiple techniques can be used, including an embroidery process, in which the quills are sewed down to the base material; a wrapping technique, where the quills are wrapped to create thin strips; and also plaiting, which is similar to a braiding technique. For instance, quills are naturally oily from the porcupine, so they have to be lightly washed so the oil can be removed and the quills will hold dye. [Extracted from the article]
