Skitswish beaded buckskin gloves, bags, belts, moccasins and small dolls from the Kateri Club, Desmet Idaho, ca. 1937

Description: 

Tribal Members hand-sewed products to be taken to the San Francisco Fair. Felix's mom, Mary Aripa (known for her beautiful beadwork and buckskin work), did a lot of dolls. In 1937, Sarah Skanen SiJohn and Margaret Mary Matt took the produced items to the fair. They also took orders from the display. They dispersed the money to the workers.
