NMAI and some knitting
Sep. 27th, 2004 03:52 pmThe new museum was a wonderful experience. My mother and cousin got to walk in the processional in their regalia on Tuesday. Unfortunately, their regalia is all wool! But they still had a lovely time despite the heat. My mother had borrowed her regalia from her friend Bonnie. It included some 16th Century trade silver and trade beads. My mother was very proud to wear it. I think that the ribbon work was lovely and I would love to learn this dying craft. I arrived late Wednesday nite and got to go into the museum's opening gala. The place was hopping! ( Here is a picture from the outside. )
