The Lakota Star Quilt: The Story Behind

  • Summary

  • Join Paul LaRoche in this Holiday Episode of Hidden Heritage called "The Lakota Star Quilt". Travel back to December of 1993 when Paul and his family spent their first Christmas on the Lower Brule Sioux Indian Reservation. They were gifted a beautiful Lakota Star Quilt that Holiday season but it took years before they understood the true significance of that special honoring.

    For the Lakota, the Star Quilt is far more than a blanket; it’s a gift embedded with love, respect, and blessings. It is often presented at significant life events—births, graduations, marriages, and even funerals. To receive a Star Quilt is to be wrapped in the warmth of the community and the protection of the ancestors.
