I chose green because it reminds me of green grass, the blue is for the dark, dark night sky. The yellow reminds me of the sun in the Blackfoot stories and the pink is the sunset at night and the sunrise in the morning. The design tells a story about a boy going through the tall grass, swimming across the water, walking up the mountains to go on his Vision Quest.
My classmates thought that the person who would wear these colors and design would be a girl around 18-19 years old. She would be very kind and gentle to all the tribe members. She would have a lot of friends even though she was a little shy. She would be caring and help the kids if their parents were gone hunting for the day and if there was no one to take care of them.
