It includes fabrics floorcoverings textiles and decorative accessories inspired by the beauty of their homelands on Dinetah (Navajo Nation) and the weaving practice they learned from their late grandmother notable artist Nellie Glasses. The bed blanket Naiomi designed for this collection is woven with wool and cotton yarns to create subtle variegated stripes a nod to the rock formations on Navajo Nation including the landscape that can be seen from her family's home. It features a compilation of motifs including Spider Woman crosses a symbol that represents the creator and teacher of the weaving tradition in Navajo culture and four-directional crosses which along with the number four carry great significance in Navajo tradition as well as in other Native communities. They reference the Earth's four directions.
