Thank you. I am wanting to use the natural materials in my yard. I live on the plains. Your video caught my eye without my reading glasses.😍 i have blackberry branches without thorns and mulberry branchs and they are piyable ready to weave. I have a weaver of French linen in my background. Watched her make all things for 8 years.

I used to weave baskets and used to talk to Mike and Sandra Palli on John Cornsilk’s message board. Not many of us weavers left.

Dr miller, thank you for your comment. You are correct, i am of mixed native with european ancestry as well. However, I was raised in a Cherokee community, around the language and in the culture. There is so much more to being Cherokee than ones skin color. What do you do to contribute to your communities cultural preservation, if I may ask?
