Gown No.4

This gown came to me after visiting with a friend.  Her cousin Geri was in town, and after the hiking26 discussion took over, she offered it to me.  It’s incredibly beautiful.  Somewhat heavy, and it’s getting special care from me, to make it hikeable… it’s going to be heavier than I’d like, but the bead work is excellent, and it’s worth caring for, while making sure the beads aren’t left behind as trail trash…
