Title: why as a matter of fact i do
Post by: bigpapa on October 10, 2011, 11:05:05 am

i have a blanket i received as a gift before leaving Ohio and moving here to California. I've carried this heavy blanket around fro many years and have had it wrapped up in a garbage bag ever since i moved here. i was afraid to hang it on the wall and most certainly wasn't going to walk on it.
i'm curious as to know who made it? Where it came from? And approximate value if anyone happens to know but it's not all that important because i am part native american and this blanket weighs a ton and the work is definitely hand done.
Can anyone answer my questions?

Can we get a pic of the back and a close up of the stitching around the edges of the figures ?? This appears to be a rug rather than a blanket !!
