These cradle cloths were used to tie around cradleboard 117060. They were given to the donor's aunt, Mary Angelina Gilbert, and were previously used to cradle three generations of Native Americans. The panels of the cradle board wrappers have black ribbon and cloth panels, one larger and one smaller, decorated with ribbon in parallel stripes of different colors. There are three strings for attachment on the short sides.
