Description

Cloth dresses came to the Plains Indian women with the westward movement of the fur trade. Light calicos were very popular for everyday use, red and blue trade cloth (broadcloth) was used for "best dress," and today this dress with ribbons on it is commonly seen at rendezvous and powwows.

Using this pattern, you can create the calico Plains Indian Cloth Dress, the now classic "Ribbon Dress" and the Traditional Trade Cloth Dress.

Included in the pattern (Sizes 8 thru 20) are options for three different neckline styles and two distinct sleeve variations. Also shown are complete directions for lining the dress.

Instructions are enclosed for making the ribbon dress and the trade cloth dress is also easily made from this fine pattern.

The flexibility of this pattern and the ease with which it is completed has made the Plains Indian Cloth Dress one of our most popular patterns.
