This is my Métis sash. It teaches me life lessons. When I look closer, I can see that I’m woven together with my life experiences. This sash helped remind me that dark times may be present, but they don’t make up your whole story. This sash was given to me by my mom, the sweetgrass, sage, and shell are from family, and I built the table. We’re always receiving gifts from others. When we can weave these gifts into something that serves us, we’re healing, making life meaningful, and we can give gifts to help others weave their sashes.
