Applique Wall Hanging Andean Folk Art, "A Spring Day"
Leonor Quispe conveys a child's pleasure on a splendid spring day in the Andes. Birds fly amid kites that soar on the warm breeze above a quiet mountain hamlet. A bunny and two billy goats graze in the meadow and ducklings gaze at bright butterflies in a magical scene. Quispe works in the traditional art of arpillería (patchwork) to create this extraordinary wall hanging. Each tiny figure is crafted in three dimensions and lavishly embroidered.
A display rod can be slipped through an opening at the top.

This is a beautiful handmade piece of art work. I was looking for a wall hanging that had bright colors for the Spring and Summer seasons. This piece has the colors that I was looking for. It has a colorful, happy scene.

"Delightful Gift for a baby?s room"
When my colleague & friend was expecting her baby, I knew I wanted to get something special that they could enjoy together. Today her daughter is 3 years old and they still tell me how much they enjoy looking at the wall hanging and making up stories about the animals.

"Spectacular wall hanging"
The picture on the website does not do justice to this gorgeously crafted wall handing. The texture is wonderful with the people, donkey blankets, and flower petals popping off the background. The colors are brilliant. This stunning piece of work exceeded my expectations by a country mile.
