Bob I have tried that wet method and I am not good at it. Wish I could watch it in person.

Beautiful items in those pics, by all means post more photos if you have 'em. I would like to be able to do beadwork but not sure I have the patience required for the time it takes to create something that well done. Always enjoy looking at it though.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Very nice pieces! Super nice Cheyenne pipe bag! The moccs with the cross look to be Cheyenne also. The women's moccs/ boots are probably Comanche, but could also be Kiowa. Thanks for the Picts. Curtis
