Figs. 60 and 61 show characteristic designs which are embroidered on
jackets or carrying bags. All these are added with the one idea of
beautifying the garment, without any thought of copying some living
form. This is true also of the incised zigzag lines, scrolls, and
meander patterns seen on the silver breast disks (Fig. 53), and those
stained on palm bark hats (Fig. 47).
FIGS. 60 AND 61. EMBROIDERED DESIGNS ON JACKTES[sic] AND CARRYING BAGS.
Tobacco pouches (Fig. 62) are often completely covered with bright
colored geometrical designs embroidered in trade yarn. This work, which
is quite unlike the other decoration used by this people, was probably
introduced along with trade yarn and analine[sic] dyes.
