Precise geometric motifs alternate with birds in an exquisite design. From talented members of Women United for Artisan Development, the cushion cover is woven by hand on a backstrap loom. Cording defines the borders, and the back is solid red. "We love birds," the artisans confide. "This design was woven by women who live in Quiché, a forested region in western Guatemala."
Should one of the threads snag, they suggest you pull it back into place from the back of the fabric with a fine crochet hook.

I love the design on front, and the back zipper is hidden— well designed and carefully made. It seems like it will last a long time too.

I use to live in Guatemala and use to enjoy going to all the craft shows. I have a house full of treasures from Guatemala. Use to go to the old capital by bus with al the chickens. Scary bus ride from Tuguesagalpa. I love the work that all of your womans group does! Thank you!
