Chainstitch Cushion Cover - Artwork by Julie Woods (2)
Julie is telling the story of two sisters travelling through her mother's country towards Docker River, Northern Territory. They stopped at Ilkuwaratjara and cut a wana (digging sIck). The punu (wood) was really straight. The little sister was gettng homesick, but the big sister said; "No, I am taking you to meet your family." Along the way they were digging for kuka (meat such as goanna) and Niny (Bilby). They got kuka and they were happy to have a good feed. The 'U' shapes are the sisters. Next to them are their wana or digging sick. The circles represent rock or water holes where water collects after the rains.
