Beaded Baby Moccasin Class

Create your very own pair of Ojibwe beaded baby moccasins with St. Croix tribal member Hazel Hindsley on Saturday, March 21, from 10 am to 4 pm.

Using quality tanned deer hide, Hazel will teach the steps required for assembly and help you embellish the baby moccasins with bead embroidery using her sample patterns or your own design.

A respected elder in the St. Croix tribal community, Hazel is a master in Ojibwe language, moccasin-making, beading, blankets, regalia, dance, and traditional teachings. She learned beading and moccasin-making from her mother.
