Description

In 1865, a young beader created this design for her own moccasins and leggings. Generations later, Cydnee Shangreaux has translated her fourth great-grandmother’s pattern to tell the Morning Storm story. Two borders of Morning Stars represent a long life with many winters. Steps represent a journey, with the two dots on either side signifying a good life from childhood to adulthood. Thunderbirds serve as messengers along the way, carrying songs through the storm. 32″ x 44″ Napped; fabric is combed for a softer, thicker feel Felt binding or Whipstitch binding or Ultrasuede binding Pure virgin wool/cotton Fabric woven in our American mills Dry clean Made in USA Created exclusively for the American Indian College Fund, a nonprofit organization that helps fund scholarships for Native American students and tribal colleges.
