Butterfly-Themed Cotton Blend Tapestry from Guatemala, "Birds and Butterflies"

Inspired by her love for butterflies and birds, Guatemalan artisan Micaela Churunel Ajú designs this vibrant tapestry. Against a beige background, a colorful butterfly spreads its wings, surrounded by flowers, birds, and a smaller butterfly. The Maya Women's Rug Hooking Group creates the one-of-a-kind tapestry, diligently crafted of recycled cotton blend remnants through a time-honored hooking process.
