    I love your classes and appreciate the knowledge. Thank you.❤ my grandma’s passed early and maybe didn’t know how to make these herself. The advice is needed but not always given in my community.

    New world order don't want us to have our routes. They want us to forget them. Because, it's much easier to manipulate with people without routes. We now that and understand that very well . Be strong, be well. Big support and love from Serbia.🙏🏻👏👌❤

      Growing up in the city along with my entire family- my grandmother did not bead, no longer spoke the language well meshed into the eastern (American) ways! Before she returned my auntie her eldest helped guide my grandmother and her twin back to the circle! At this point many of my family have returned and walk this path! All of my grandmothers greats babies ALL walk this path. The prophecies have shown this to us!😊

    I don’t know if your Pearl? I just read about your husband and his generous soul he had with family and friends.
    Found the article on google, very well written.
    Wishing you and your family much happiness from Tucson, Arizona and thanks for the wonderful videos.🌵

    I saw another guy make moccasins and he actually made a pattern of his foot started with the right foot and then you just flip it over to the left foot so just trace around your foot and then do the half Inch thing up or down

    Excelente trabajo. Es una lastima que no esten habilitados los subtítulos automáticos en español. Me encantaría poder leer los comentarios e indicaciones de la señora, de seguro muy instructivos. Gracias por la enseñanza y saludos desde España.

      @eagleleathertradingco9795 Před 2 měsíci

      She said add a half inch for each size up and I have to watch the video 37:49 again to see what size she started with

    Dear Veronika, is it appropriate for non-First Nations/Native Americans to learn how to make them?

    Hi
    I would really appreciate knowing what size pattern you made in this video.
    Best explanation if pattern making I have seen.
    Still working in the pleating.
    The first nations group here does it differently but tge Inuit planting is similar to yours except that they gather the leather before sewing it to the vamp.
    Thanks for sharing your knowledge
