Event
Southeastern Style Moccasin Making
Fri, Nov 4 6:00 PM – Sun, Nov 6 4:00 PM EST
In Person
These beautiful, supremely comfortable custom fitted moccasins are patterned after the traditional footwear of the Cherokee, Seminole, Creek and other Southeastern tribes. We will learn how to take measurements of the foot, make a pattern, choose buckskin, lay out the pattern and cut the material. Then we do the precise stitching using simple awls and the buckskin thong lacing cut from the same hide. We will discuss long term care, added sole pieces for durability, insole cushioning and hi-tops. Go home with the most comfortable footwear you have ever worn! They are warm, quiet, lightweight and made from natural materials. You will love them!
