Porcupine quill embroidery is an ancient art form practiced throughout much of the North American continent from ancient times to the present. Many people recognize quill embroidery on hide clothing, but it is also used on birch bark for decorative and functional items. Make your own quill-decorated barrette or pendant to take home. Recommended for adults and children ages 10 and up. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
