This year's Winner and Artist of the 2016
Vinterfest Button is Shannon O'Brien. Button
designs had to follow this year's theme.
2016 Theme Hems1djden
Hemslojden is hand crafting. This year we
are focusing on tools to be used primarily by
women for making cloth for clothes etc.
The production of tools to make cloth from
wool or linen became the task of the men.
Often the creating of the tool became an
opportunity for creativity and artistic
expression as well as functionality. In the
society, social significance for these tools in
the rituals of the community developed also.
Scutching knives, shuttles and mangles
especially took on significance as betrothal
gifts. Lovingly made and embellished by
young men and presented to the young girl of
their dreams. When accepted, the community
celebrated the impending marriage. As the
couple moved/migrated, these tools went
too ... both as important tools, but with
memories attached to them. Sometimes too, if
the offered tool was rejected, the community
demanded that the rejected tool be displayed
on the door of the young man who made it!
Hence, the saying" Beware of the man with
too many mangles/shuttles/scutching knives!"
Weaving looms and quilting frames, both
large and bulky, became wedding gifts and
passed through generations. Again, the skill
and artistic ability of the maker was displayed
as well as the generous gift of time to make
the items. Along with spinning wheels, these
items were made to be disassembled for
packing and transport to new locations of the
owner ... even America!
*Money raised from the Scanley Cup
Tournament goes towards the Fireworks
Display and improvements to the ice rink.
