The Caper Times

6. In the Mille Lacs' version of the Ojibwe Jingle Dress, the dance and the dress is a homage to this one little who was sick, nearing death. Her father, the Midewinini, prayed for her and had a vision of a dance that would heal his daughter. During the traditional drum ceremony, he brought his dream to life, and people sang, and women danced. The little girl was wearing a dress lined in rows of silver cones made of life of snu cans. As the night went on, the little girl's health kept on improving. Just looooook at the details involved in this piece.
