I picked up a dress and headband a few years ago that had hundreds, or maybe a thousand or more trade beads sewn on. The headband (pictured) was completely covered in them, The dress had fringes on the arms, hem, shoulders, and elsewhere with beads tied in. The dress appeared to be mid to late 19'th century as it looked to have been sewn on a treadle sewing machine.
