They’re all so gorgeous. I’m diné and I never worn a ribbon skirt but always thought they were so pretty! I just didn’t know if it was appropriate to do so. But this video is inspiring me to try and make one for myself 😊.
Totally! I always try to encourage others to start somewhere 🤗 I’d say rock one! I feel most beautiful when I’m in a skirt and I’d love for others to experience that 💕
I'm Choctaw, I've made a few ribbon skirts. Just for me tho. But I'm still in the beginning stages of learning to sew clothes. I'm trying to incorporate more Choctaw patterns on the skirts. Also love ur collection 💖
Those skirts are so pretty, I have an idea on the long skirt, maybe you can put pleats just above the ribbons if you run 3 rows of half inch pleats that's deleting 3 inches😀. I've never seen pleats on a skirt, they might, interfere with the flow of the skirt, not sure🤔. Oh, you pulled off the scarf look, very nice, and the earrings are cool too
Love Seeing your collection of ribbon skirts! I also love wearing skirts and dresses. I'm a square Dancer, and a couple of my skirts have Ribbons! I made a skirt and top for dancing out of a large long print dress, and added ribbons to it. Think that set is packed away (to pass on) - I'm inspired to pull it out and add some wider Ribbons! Degadeloquai Tsalagi (I'm learning Cherokee) honoring my ancestors - 🌈
The skirts are pretty and unique. Cheap dental floss might work better than thread for the bows. It works well for buttons that take a lot of pulling. Waxed might be easier but need more knots not to come untied. I'm thinking of trying it for button holes. I just don't seem to have luck with thread.
Beautiful skirts thank you for sharing this video! I am an Afro indigenous queer woman (eastern woodlands) I’ve been drawn to ribbon skirts lately. Looking to connect with community and found your video. I’m so glad you shared these beautiful designs! ❤️🙏🏾🪶
Love your collection, I just make my 1st skirt, also using thrifted fabric, my ribbons symbolize things Ive been through in my life from cancer, to a liver transplant to the losses of family and friends. I and mixed white but also Lumbee, Cherokee and Powhatan.
The scarf looks great! I like the floofy hair, it adds the volume a scarf look needs! I've been making my first ribbon skirt and I can't get the ribbon to not pucker, any advice?
I sooo enjoyed watching your vid, nice nice job. The collection is beautiful, you're beautiful. if there's a tute on pockets, I'd love to know which direction to go LoL.
I love each and everyone of them. Thank you for sharing. Ive never heard of "ribbon skirts". This might sound like a dumb question but can anyone wear a ribbon skirt?I'm not native American and I ask because 1. my niece is native American and she is getting married next year and I would love to wear one for her ceremony? 2. I only wear skirts both long or short which I sew myself and would like to make some. A lot of the fabrics you had one your skirts are like the fabric I have. TIA AnneMarie
ash that's an amazing reason and way to start, I bet they turned out beautiful. That's the next type of skirt I need to make for my collection, MMIW2SGred❤ skirt and a skirt for Every Child Matters 🧡
that's amazing! some of my projects get like that too and sometimes take up to a year to finish because I work on them on and off LOL im sure once you finish it will be so worth it and so beautiful 😊
I think you should be able to wear what ever you are comfortable with 😊💕 a friend of mine is two spirited and he wears ribbon skirts, makes beautiful looks with them 😊
We have a military group...would you find a green camo....or desert camo skirt for us...our lady vets....we go by Zuya Akicita Veterans....went to ceremony for our name....were Lakota Sioux....not affiliated with pine ridge or rosebud tribes....we do everything out of our own pockets...travel all over the midwest
I'm not enough indigenous to be part of a tribe because my family tried to white pass as much as possible. Would it be appropriate for me to wear one to honor my great grandmothers?
