Delivery EstimateThe star of Bethlehem illuminates Peruvian skies with news of the birth of Jesus. The Three Kings journey through the Andes while shepherds and their farm animals keep the Holy Family company. Artisans from Santa Magdalena Association effectively capture the magical spirit of Christmas in this tree skirt. Expertly detailed, the ornament is sewn by hand with arpillería techniques, Peru's renowned appliqué. Three dimensional figurines are individually crafted from spare pieces of material, before sewing into the main composition.

"A beautiful nativity surrounded by Peruvian animals!"
This is a large Christmas stocking made by the artisans at Santa Magdalena using the traditional arpillera or patchwork art of sewing three dimensional designs. I also have two of their wall hangings and can say they are excellent artisans in this art and I love their work. This stocking has a star shooting through the sky, and a stable picturing the nativity. This nativity is very simple, with adorable figures representing the mother, father and the baby Jesus, surrounded by many, many Andean animals and trees, cacti, flowers and mountains. Each time you look at the stocking you will see something else they have sewn. I really love this stocking very much. I thank these ladies and wish them a very Happy Christmas!

"This is such a beautiful wall hanging!"
Years ago I bought one of Santa Magdalena Associations wall hangings called Amazon. I still have it, and now I have A Jungle Story to hang with Amazon, and they are both amazing and beautiful. I love the fact that they decorate with so many interesting animals and birds, trees and bushes and flowers, and people. Every time you look at them, another object pops out and you notice it. Their work is just fascinating to your eyes. Very colorful and very interesting. I love the artisans and the hangings both!

"Bought years ago and still have and love."
I bought my wall hanging Amazon years ago and still have and love it. It is so colorful and enjoyable to look at, and very creative. In fact, I am about to buy another wall hanging from Santa Magdalena Association these many years later (2021)! These women are very talented and show a lot of imagination and a great sense of color.

"Whimsical Beauty"
This is a beautifully-embroidered pillow cover. I makes me smile each time I look at it, and each time I look at it closely, I discover a new detail that I hadnt seen before.
