Cotton blend cosmetic case, 'Blue Alpaca Afternoon'
Bright Colors and Great Detail
I found myself drawn to the meticulous detail in this zippered cosmetic bag by Maria Ramos Sanchez. I love the grazing Alpaca under a bright sun. I also appreciate that this case came with free gift wrap that includes a tiny worry doll adorning the ribbon bow. I now have a practical, attractive gift that I know will be appreciated by someone who is dear to me.

Appliqué mini shoulder bag, 'Love in the Mountains'
By Marnie
I love this sling bag and its title Love in the Mountains!
This is one of many items I have purchased from Ms. Sanchez, including a cell phone bag, a coin purse, a wall hanging, and a pencil case . She is an extremely talented and imaginative artisan. I love her title and the couple she has put on the bag loving their mountains and each other. Her portrayal of the beauty of her country delights me and makes me wish I could visit Peru. If you study her applique work you will find many interesting and beautiful things. I truly love everything she has made and sent to me, and I thank her.
