The fabric used is called Yankirri Jukurrpa (Emu Dreaming) by Lee Nangala Gallagher
This Jukurrpa (Dreaming) tells the story of a 'yankirri' (emu) and a 'wardilyka' (bush turkey). The emu and bush turkey used to go around the country picking bush raisins and mashing them into fruit balls to save in their nests for later. However, they were jealous of each other - the emu thought that the bush turkey was picking the best and juiciest and was leaving him with only the sour.
The emu went to the bush turkey's nest while he was out hunting and smashed up his fruit balls. When the bush turkey returned he went to confront the emu and when he found him, they got into a big fight. The bush turkey eventually flew away to the north, leaving behind the smashed 'yakajirri' balls.
About the dress maker:
My daughter Mia is Aboriginal (Darumbal Country); so it has always been important to me to teach Mia about her heritage, culture and family history. So I feel very honoured and proud to create this collection of clothing in collaboration with Miniland Dolls Australia and the launch of their new Australian Aboriginal Miniland dolls.
Children learn through play; so incorporating these new Australian Aboriginal Miniland dolls and this collection of clothing featuring Aboriginal artwork is an exciting step towards improving all children’s knowledge and understanding of the Aboriginal history and culture.
