When making infant mocs, is the front and the back measured the same with a two finger measurement for the front and one for the back or is there a different way to measure?

How to get the quill and other supplies? Geno martos

Great video, one question, do you have to use hot glue, or could you use wood glue?

Are you buying any bead work right now? We have some earrings that are bead worked

Yes they look like cuffs, or maybe collar pieces? Could the long piece be a crossbody bag strap? I'm just guessing. I love a good mystery.😅

That is some serious work! Beautiful.

Murano, Venice, made from glass canes, which are shaped using specifically constructed star moulds.

Interesting collection!

Can you dye real sinew?

Wait what? Venetian Chevron Beads from the Czech Republic? That doesn't make sense brother.

Hermoso ver esto 🪶🫶🏿🌄

I'm hearing that New England accent! Thank you for these excellent videos!!

I've learned so much from your videos. The eastern woodland moccs. (They turned out beautiful!) Lane stitch quillwork.(Need more practice). Regular moccasins using the two finger spacing method. (Success) The gustaweh is on my list. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I really enjoy your videos!

Congrats. This is a huge source of knowledge and craftmanship. Well done. I am looking Forward to the next Videos. 👍

Thank you!

Thank you!

That is amazing work thank you for sharing your knowledge. Greetings from California.😎🌵

How do you tighten the threads if they get loose

This is incredible and very helpful. Thank you!! Ay ay 🙏

Can anyone share their recipe for the Rit Synthetic dyes to dye the quills so brilliant? I havent seemed to have good luck

Thank you, wonderful work❤

Is it hard for carrying stone knives ?

Thank you for the tutorial video:)

Def not telling you how to do your thing but a wing fan lasts a lot longer if you skin out those bones and rebuild that structure with cedar or another wood. Pacc that area with salt.. it will prevent decay. I glue that wooden structure into that cavity to replicate the support of the bones provided. From there I sew on a handle much like you demonstrate though I do sew the top through the wing itself instead of gluing it. Be careful on that step tho because if not done properly the feathers can shift slightly though it does provide a much tighter fit than glue will provide. Some tips...

Could you by any chance give a list of the books in the video or any others you'd reccomend? Thanks Chris

Could you use hide glue for this or is it not a strong enough bond?

Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing, brother! Hey everyone, show a brother some love with a 👍like, I see a ton of views and very few likes,😢jus' sayin', 💙✌️🤗 ya'll!

Very generous from you to donate it to the Museum. Your explanation shows that you have a huge knowledge. Love to learn about these things this way. 💪

I have a vintage medallion and the lanyard has seen much better days. Is it possible to replace it. I know I wont be able to match the beads.

Thank you so much for these videos! My best friend is from a First Nations tribe and recently got back into beading, so I've been gifting her as much supplies as I can afford since I love her (and her husband) lots lol. I have no experience with native crafts and had no idea how any of this is done, so these videos gave me a really good idea of what I can gift her in the future. Even just bead colours, sizes, backing materials, etc. I've even bought a few small things for myself to try and am now even more impressed with how delicate and skillful you need to be to create such gorgeous pieces. Thanks so much again for sharing such wonderful resources, even for people outside of the beading art/craft space it's been so helpful!

Thank you, desde colombiaa IAm práctis

Pretty

Very informative Chris! Thanks for donating the moccasins to the Mt. Kearsarge Museum in Warner, NH where everyone can enjoy these!

wTF. They don't get it. TY for posting!!!!

Thanks, Chris, good show

What those haircut name?

When working with feathers, pray.

It seems like it would be easier to do the beading on the "skin" or front side of the leather, is there a reason you are doing it on the back side?

I don't see the point in the construction method. What is wrong with making a pattern and sewing it on? It would be good if could show actual objects made my native people to compare

That so beautiful

Thanks for continuing to share your knowledge.

2:37 "They go right into your finger very nicely." 😂😂😂 Sadly, I can relate!

Thank you so much!

Hi how do you loom a bead a bear?

I got confused which side ended up being on the outside. I thought you wanted the smooth (hair side) out, but it looked like you ended up with the flesh side out.

Nice piece! Thank you!

Thanks

I thought 6-layer were the most sought-after. Havent seen a 7-layer.

Thanks for showing how
