We are proud to kick off our Give To The Max campaign with a beaded moccasin donated by Alf Erickson. This moccasin appears to be a split toe construction, and features flowers and trim created in seed beads. Seed beads came to what we now know as Minnesota during the Fur Trade, sometimes traveling all the way from Paris! Before that, porcupine quills, hair, shells, and other natural materials decorated clothing and accessories.
A single bead or stitch does not make a design, but when you combine many, you can create something unique. Will you join us in strengthening our organization with your bead of financial support?
