The artistry and the time it takes is amazing. And the beauty is just stunning.

@kathywalker6915 Год назад

As.a.spinner and weaver, this was fascinating! I've heard of finger weaving, but didn't know much about it. I'm feeling inspired.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

It seems like it might be a natural progress to your skill set, Kathy.

@robertwiggins4921 Год назад

Peter thanks so much for bringing Denis Caron to our attention. His woven assumption sashes are beautiful! He has developed amazing skills and knowledge on dying, spinning, sweaving and maintaining old skills. Quebec has some amazing artisans keeping the old skills and crafts alive but it takes a real concerted effort to locate these treasured craftsmen. I have to admit I was very surprised to see Denis playing the pipes! I wonder what prompted his interest in them. Best Regards

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Thanks Robert. I’ll have to ask Denis why the interest in pipes. Funny how we profile as no one would question a fiddle in the hands of a French Canadian, lol.

@marieleopold1625 Год назад

W O W !!! WHAT a vid! A wonderful tool for school history and craft learning. Boy Peter, with the amount of time Denis needs to accomplish one of his 'works of art'...you could be working on a birch bark canoe and he on a sash and U would both finish in about the same amount of time = YIKES! Simply GORGEOUS pieces. I hope this walk through tutorial will inspire some 2 preserve this historical craft. I can visualize both U and Catherine spending some evenings by the fire, weaving away. It's a lovely pastime 4 all walks and ages of life. It seems 2 me that weaving is a visual of the 'many factors needed' to fulfill something both useful and attractive with our lives. Much 2 ponder here...and the work gives occasion 2 do so. Thanks kindly 4 this wealth of an experience shared. Health and God Bless! :) P.S. Noticed that Denis sported a bandage on a thumb at the start of the vid and after the delicious meal shared...no bandage! Must have been one heck of a meal!

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

The time frame to make some of his sashes is indeed equivalent to that of making a birch bark canoe and that my friend I find crazy! Your quite observant about the bandage. When he arrived and I saw the bandage I started to question just how safe an activity we were entering into. As to sitting by the fire and weaving, given the arthritis in my fingers I might.be leaving that to Cathy while I spin tall tales!

@ashleyanderson2859 Год назад

Appreciate your efforts and dedication! What a talented guest. Patient too I might add. Playing the pipes from my understanding is quite an accomplishment with many hours of practice.

I’m with you Gregory, Cathy has got this business down pretty darn quick.

@sheilam4964 Год назад

👍👍👍👍👍 - Thank you Denis, Pete and Cathy for sharing this history. The incredible amount of hours it takes to make one of these sashes explains why we no longer can afford hand made. No one could afford to buy a sash, if the price were calculated at minimum wage per hour. With the Cheiny (? spelling) one taking 400 hours to make, $3,000. was a steal at 7.50 an hour for just the labour meaning that doesn't include the price of the 10,000 beads nor the wool. The next time you see one of these Hand Made sashes appreciate its value.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

That is the very reason I don’t make my birch bark canoes to sell. First it is a very niche market and with 600 hours of labour, even if I charged minimum wage the eyebrows go up. I’ll pass on your words toDenis.

@PATCsawyer Год назад

Another skill share at the tavern. The amount of TIME invested in any 18th/19th century pursuit is staggering. Whether a weaver, gunsmith, cooper, blacksmith, cabinet maker, whatever...... it wasn't a hobby but a profession of that era. There was pride in the final product and a recognition of a craftsman's/craftswoman's skill.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Indeed there was a sense of pride. I’ve been fortunate to have a number of artisans visit and share their knowledge. Our door is always open to living historians.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

They are called trade silver, a very common item in the 17 and 1800’s. Animal furs were traded for these items and mostly worn by natives but, often by European settlers. If one wore a lot it was a symbol of affluence . They could also be used as currency as in the earlier years real money was very scarce . If one found themself at a trading post and was in need of powder, flower, tea etc, you simply traded with your trade silver. We appreciate your interest, Kelly.

Hi Deborah, backstrap is that it's attached to one's waist and a weaving with a shuttle. The techniques with the fingers is either attached or not at the base of the strands, and is considered or classified by some textile experts more as a braiding than a weaving because it is all the same strands that are used, not 2 seperated bodies of strands, i.e. warp and weft per se. thanks for your question.

Any advise on yardage needed to do gators and a belt sash?

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

I’ll get back to you Gregory with an answer.

@deniscaron1306 Год назад

add 30% of the final length needed or wanted. take the fringe into account as well, 2 times ! for each end. the knot eats approx 1 to 2 inches on a garter, 2 to 4 on a sash. so braiding makes you loose 30% on length because the strands go sideways, and up and down. compared to 20% in weaving for warp loss in lenght.

Good show, beautiful work. Bag pipes not so much---lol--- To fat for a sash, guess ill have to make twine suspenders.

What's the reason for the pins on your shirt?

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

In the 1800th century trade silver was very common. Cash was rare and one could trade in their silver for provisions at a trading post.

@@TheWoodlandEscape ah very cool. It is like the pegans in Europe. Why do you wear wealth in the woods instead of in a purse. I would be sad no one would see it and also the Indians would destroy me for it.

@TheWoodlandEscape Год назад

Actually the natives wore it for just that reason, to show how affluent they were.
