Chickasaw Tradish Dress

~*~MizzQaqimat~*~ · 05-04-2004, 01:50 PM

Hey there. Does anyone know anyone who makes tradish Chickasaw dresses? I'm looking for one, preferably red and white, or royal blue and white, at a reasonable price, at abotu a size 16 or 18.
Or, does anyone know where I can get a pattern for one?

Chukma Cousin!

My mom made mine. She used pictures and made her own pattern. But there's a lady in Ada, OK who makes them. Let me do some digging around for her name, dang. can't remember. Oops, yes I do, well at least her first name. Her name is Lenny and she works for tribal govt. Contact the Headquarters in Ada and ask for Lenny. I'll PM you if I find her last name. Think I have all her info in my phonebook at home. I'm at work now, so it will be later on this evening.

I don't have a pic of one, but I bet I could find one and put it on here. I'll look for one, they're probably all copyrighted though...

Yeah, my mom flipped when she saw she could have made separates instead of a full dress.
