Evelyn Turner

I am Evelyn Turner. Currently residing in North Bay, Ontario Canada. I was born and raised in Attawapiskat, Ontario a remote fly in only reserve located along the coast of James Bay. My family roots are from Weenusk First Nation of which I am a member and proud to be Cree.

I started crafting at an early age learning from my mom. Many hours were spent together beading and sewing. I mainly work with seed beads and leathers, usually doing floral or animal patterns. What I am known for is my earrings, from hoops to fully beaded patterns. I do like doing a variety of products such as earrings, bracelets, necklaces, barrettes, medallions, card holders, purses, mitts and ribbon skirts just to name a few.
