Profits from the blanket series sales go to the museum. They run limited editions (sewn in label, I believe) along with the standard product. Museum members get a discounted price & free shipping. A cost savings that offsets the annual minimum $25 annual membership fees, in this instance.

In researching the titles of the blankets, I stumbled onto NA quilts that are posted on the internet & displayed in the museums. Maybe our quilting forum members would be interested.
I just put away my quilt making supplies from the winter craft projects I work on. Next winter I would love to attempt a NA quilt with a Buffalo on it and some antique Sioux designs. My brother used to work at a trading post in Washington (PNW) -- he was the manager and he had some of the most beautiful Pendleton blankets there.

Don't forget the Tipis with radio antenneas in bordering the bison. <At least that's what my granddaughter calls the design>

Either that or they haven't gotten cable or fiber-optics run into the village, and need for TV reception.

Not to belabor off-topic much longer. Remember to stay geometric & symmetrical. Actually, the antennea are 3 pronged-forks that break up a overly solid basckground. <See I learned something in my Sioux Beadwork classes 3 years ago>

Awesome! Thanks for that information. That will make a really nice quilt. I like the Sioux colors and designs.
I am going to have to go look up those artists and Pendleton art work Jane mentioned. I love Pendleton blankets.

Oh my! Now that is something to ponder on for sure. Where did you ever find that picture?
I am anxious now to design my quilt. I have it perfectly set up in my mind.
