Biography

Wachay my name is Lily Chouinard a proud member of Taykwa Tagamou Nation.

Growing in Moose Factory I was taught by my late mother Ruby Moore how to bead and sew.

I take great joy in sharing the craft with youth, women & people of my communities.

Crafting is a healthy therapy that aids in mental clarity in a calming way.

I am always excited to try new crafts and learn new techniques!

Miigwetch Misiway!
