Quill loom. A piece of willow wood is bent into a bow to support the weaving. At one end is attached a short strip of moosehide held in place by a pin topped with a red plastic ball. To the hide is sewn several cotton threads. Near their opposite ends, the threads pierce a thin rectangle of cardboard that keeps them separated; they are then tied to the other end of the wood. Woven into the threads are porcupine quills dyed multiple colours, creating cream-coloured diamonds on a background of alternating areas of light green, dark pink, and yellow. Borders of white and yellow line each side of the weaving. The quills have not been trimmed.

Near their opposite ends the threads pierce a small rectangle of cardboard to keep them separated, and are then tied to the other end of the willow. Woven into the threads are porcupine quills dyed multiple colours, creating patterns of 'X's and diamonds on a cream-coloured background. The quills have been cut to a length of approximately 1 cm at the back of the weaving.
