This single Biil panel, woven from hand-spun indigo blue and aniline red 4-ply yarn.  Background natural black and brown home spun native wool.  Represents a crucial piece of Navajo women's heritage. The Biil—sometimes called a \"rug dress\"—was the go-to garment for Navajo women before the Long Walk, fastened at the shoulders with arm and head slits and cinched at the waist for a surprisingly practical design. This panel showcases the weaver's skill in creating textiles that were simultaneously functional and beautiful. Whether displayed as wall art or appreciated as a historical artifact, this piece celebrates Navajo women's creativity, resilience, and the everyday elegance of traditional dress.
