Description
This is "The Promise", the design for the button blanket wall hanging that I created from wool, the traditional material used by the NW Natives. The buttons are also traditional, made from abalone shell.
The buffalo is a very sacred animal for The People, and its skull is used in ceremony.
This design also makes an attractive throw pillow, sold on this site.

Thank you very much, Gary. It is a piece dear to my heart. A Squaxin friend taught me how to sew a button blanket. It is a very meaningful time putting my Native ceremonial experiences and insights into art.
