Sanikiluaq, a small Inuit community in the Belcher Islands region
of the Far North, has a long history of artistic output. But as the
demand for stone carvings grew, grass basket sewingâonce a
traditional skill for Inuit womenâfaded from the community
consciousness. That was until a group of women, including educator
and artist Margaret Lawrence, came together to renew the lost art
of basket sewing. In Our Hands Remember: Recovering Sanikiluaq
Basket Sewing, Lawrence guides readers through creating their own
grass baskets in the unique style of the Sanikiluaq region with
step-by-step instructions and photographs. From tips on preparing
the grass and forming even coils to the different types of
embellishments, this book is accessible to all skill levels.
