Doe skin leggings at pow wows - Page 2

Possum-Pie · 06-05-2004, 10:12 AM

I've been off line for awhile gettin a new PC, and starting my own business. Just seein if anyone still has some Hawk feathers or loon feathers. I wouldn't want to buy them, but would trade or barter. I want them for my prayer stick, which currently has a pheasant feather. I have lots of pheasant feathers and would trade.

what i had learned was that in olden times, men wore buckskin (the hide from male deer) and women wore doeskin. they did that for special occassions.

I took a bit of a ribbing for differentiating buck and doe skin. You helped salvage my pride!!!

Bahnisiain, I see by your bio you are Mohawk (keepers of the eastern gate) /Cherokee/Irish. I know someone who is Oneida(keepers of the stone) /Irish. Wow what a combination, Iroquois AND Irish... ;)

If you really really want a Red Tail Hawk feather, contact me, and we will see what can be done. They seem to always be throwing gifts at my daughter every time she steps outside. Now if only the nesting Eagles would be as generous.
