This motif is frequently placed in the middle of the blanket, with a fabric border sometimes included around the quilt's edge. Commonly made by Plains Native Americans; traced to the late 1800s/early 1900s as a replacement for buffalo robes that were formerly constructed by Lakota and Dakota artisans. Used as powwow regalia, funerary clothing, and as gifts in give-away events. ]]></dc:description></metadata>
