Decorating Kamiks
Boots with intricate design, such as this pair made by Martha Naqitarvik of Arctic Bay, demonstrate superb workmanship. By looking at the boot turned inside out, you can appreciate the complexity of the "Imagination" design.
How is the design done?
"The decorative design is cut out of stiff cardboard and then traced onto the back of the skin. The hair direction of the inset has to match the rest of the skin to look nice. A seam allowance is also added."
Morty Iqqasaq, Arctic Bay, 1995
