Jurors' Comments:
A. Abeita: It's a beautiful traditional design with great color, both in beadwork and feather choices, with the beadwork being exceptional. J. Ware: Exquisite beadwork, feather and leather craft in a traditional Peyote feather fan.
M. Polyestewa: (of the Runner Up) I chose the Dye Chart because there is a lot of work involved in gathering up the materials to make the natural dyes and the little rug is all hand woven. With the utilization of the dyed yarn, it's really neat because everyone wants to know what the natural dyes are (come from), and this person did a great job of collecting the materials in making the dyes.
