2spirited1stnations representing Lil'wat nation. Both my partner and I are from same nation and community. Blessed to be together. 2 tigers, same age. Hairstylist 26 yrs n counting. Traditional beadwork for regalia and cloth regalia. Love fashion design.
Small apartment leaves tiny space to work in. I'd love a proper sewing/drafting table/craft and beading space. I don't have that so I have to move all furniture to wall. So I can have a little space to lay fabric and my drafted patterns down. These are grassdance joggers in wedding satin fabric

An elder asked me last year am I proud of who I am. I said yes. She then replied. OK it's time for you to stand up and be present so those who are youth and 2spirited1stnations. You need to show your pride. Stand tall. And let them know you are here and apart of our culture. So I started my regalia

1974-1994. There was so much social shame that came from this time if you were 2spirited1stnations or gay. I faced as much hate against me for being me especially in a small rural redneck town. The hard part was this redneck town sat directly on native land. Racism and homophobia ruled at the time
