I love beading! It is def a meditation...proud Metis! Descendent of Anishinaabe/French fur trader, Scots/Cree traders, & French/Mi'kmaq...still filling in those blanks that became only rumors by my dad's time..I'm glad I now know who, & where...was surprised to find so much early Canadian/indigenous in my background...I'm an American...
Autumn Lheureux I just now found this. I am from the LCO rez in northern Wisconsin. 27 % Ojibwa.....Anishinaabe. My grandfather's parents were French-Canadian-Ojibwa. Grandmother was from France. (this was Mom's side) Dad's grandfather was white but, Grandmother Mary was full Ojibwa. So glad I came across this, very interesting. Hope you find out more of your family.

Simply wonderful. And a window onto sanity and sense. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for doing this video. Love it! As a traditional beader, I encourage younger people to learn our art :-)
proud my grandma is full metis she could craft ANYTHING
I love the Historic Park. I'm just amazed to see a video on Métis beadwork being made in my hometown.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Such beautiful work and designs!

Are you beading directly to the velvet?
this isnt "metis" ..this is anishinaabe
Why put quotations like that? And also, parallel traditions exist it seems like. Not one or the other.
A Q?
