i was up north for three years in schefferville to be exact with the naskapi and the montagais native.The town his an old iron ore mine which was close went i was up there it is a close town no way in by cars the only way in was by train which took 12 hours from seven island and once a week or plane it was very expensive.It`s about 368 miles from seven island (sept iles) and seven island is a 12hours ride from Montreal so here`s a few of the things we bought i can not put them all in this blog.........

sounds like a great experience and such beautiful pieces of art. you carried your baby in the pouch? I'll bet they stayed nice and warm in the winter beth0110 · 2011-09-22: 23:05

J'aime cet hommage à la tradition . Et je suppose aussi que les motifs brodés avec une dominante orange et bleu ont leur importance . breizh · 2011-09-23: 01:42

Very interesting post! Thanks for sharing! I can imagine you've had a great experience those three years with the naskapi and montagais natives... What did you do there? Learn about their culture? nynkeb · 2011-09-23: 04:17

Great colorful shots. I still have my hand made native mukluks and gloves from my years in Alaska. jlmphotos · 2011-09-23: 16:14

great set! your babies were lucky to be carried in that snuggly pouch! jennyLit · 2011-09-23: 19:13

Did you and your family live up there continuously for three years? Wow, that must have been quite different from anything we are used to down here in warmer climates... I lived in Saskatoon for two years and I thought THAT was isolated! atszabo · 2011-09-23: 20:49
