The sun shines above the snow-covered Ojibwe homelands, illuminating a trail of footprints from a well-known furry friend: the River Otter. In traditional Ojibwe art, the "Otter Steps" pattern is often seen across weaving and beadwork. Anishinaabe-Ojibwe artist Giizh (Sarah) Agaton Howes has adapted and woven this iconic design across her new Bed Linen Collection. In a muted cream, she highlights the step, step, slide movement an otter makes when moving across snow and ice in the winter.
"These footprints are visible across my community in the winter. Otters are so beautiful in the way they partner and parent as well as most notably the way they PLAY. I love to share these designs to remind us to be playful in all seasons," shares Giizh.
Elevate any bedroom with Giizh's Otter Steps Coverlet and Pillow Shams. Made from 100% cotton, her coverlet is as versatile as it is beautiful—use it as a light weight blanket in the warmer seasons, as an added layer in the fall and winter, or fold it neatly at the foot of your bed for a nice, chic touch.
