Folk Art Applique Wall Hanging, "World of Nature"
"Nature shows a marvelous range of joyous colors in a world filled with flowers. In this design I really enjoyed thinking of the fresh breeze and the blossoms' perfume," María Uyauri confides. An expression of peace on earth, this wall hanging depicts a man who feeds a duck and girls picking flowers.
Uyauri creates this beautiful wall hanging in intricate arpillera – embroidered appliqués of fabric cutouts hand-stitched to a background of cotton. Crafted in three dimensions, each figure is lavishly embroidered. A display rod can slip through an opening at the top.

"I fell in love with the dog on this clutch!"
The detailed and lovely work Maria did on this clutch made me fall in love with the dog she portrays, and wish I could bring it home. Her skill and imagination in doing the applique are very apparent, and I see from looking at her wall hangings that she is a very talented and extra special artist. I will be purchasing more of her special work. Thank you Maria for creating one of my very favorite things.

As an amateur weaver, I appreciated how this piece told the story of wool fibers, from pasture to yarn to product. Thank you!
