Pat.... make your pattern and lay it out on your hides.You'll see if you've got enough leather.

Unlike us persnickity modern folk designers the indian used all parts of a deer hide in their atire.They even brain tanned the face of deer.They were not hampered with what was fashionable,and no the front legs hanging from the arms are'nt ever a problem of any kind.I've worn them to many a buckskinners camp.Hunted with them on multiple occasions.
The plains indian tribes' clothing have been presented in multiple publications for decades upon decades.Ever since I was a kid.Their clothing showed a natural free flow to the motion of movement of a body.Exquisite displays are preserved in many museums.
