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. Bands of color represent seasons of life and all its milestones..A portion of the proceeds from the "Drum Keepers" Blanket sales will go to the American Indian College Fund, a nonprofit organization that helps fund scholarships for Native American students and tribal colleges.
