Mini Tipi-Harvesters Indigenous Blanket

ABOUT THE HARVESTERS INDIGENOUS BLANKET '' When creating a blanket design for MINI TIPI, I felt it would not be genuine to simply adhere to frequently used styles of geometric designs. This is why I chose to include the subject of wild rice harvesting from my own culture as an Anishnaabe. Anishnaabe quiltwork was also a source of inspiration for the geometric patterns featured in my design.'' In September, during the harvest moon, the Ojibwe peoples begin the rice harvest. The harvest is done in pairs using poles to hit the rice stocks knocking the grains into the canoe. The rice is an important historic food source for the Ojibwe people that feed their families over the winter months. This blanket is made from sustainable fabric woven in Italy. It’s perfect for family picnics, camping, and getting cozy around the campfire and is made large enough for a queen-size bed or a throw blanket. The warm and luxurious wool/acrylic/polyester blend makes them soft, yet washable. The trim adds a beautiful finish. Dimensions: 60 x 80 Made with recycled fabric 20% recycled wool, 30% acrylic, 50% recycled polyester Perfect soft and warm blend that will last a long time. Wash on cold. Hang to dry.
