Pendleton College Fund Blanket - Drum Keepers
The call of the singers, the beat of the drum helped designer Trey Blackhawk understand his history and ancestors. The drum's materials were once living: a buffalo or moose hide and a cedar tree were sacrificed to bring people together to heal, dance, and sing. The drum and sticks are framed by traditional applique patterns, a tribute to the mothers who hold the world together.
