Quillwork is an art form that utilizes porcupine quills as a form of textile embellishment. It is practiced almost exclusively by Native American tribes, particularly the United States. The quills made are placed on garments such as moccasins, shirts, or dresses. They are sometimes dyed before being used to make items.
