Margie Lonnie weaving a coiled plaque

Margie Lonnie of Mishongnovi begins to weave a coiled plaque. The mooho (yucca) strands that will form the center of each coil and give the plaque its rigidity can be seen sticking out to the right. In her hand she holds the yucca strand she coils around the bunch to shape the plaque. Dyed strands that have already been coiled can be seen and create the pattern of the plaque.
