Handmade quilt by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras
Description
Yesenia, the maker of the "Dainty Dolly" baby quilt, has embarked on her sewing journey with enthusiasm and dedication. As a mother of three, she found her way to sewing by initially assisting friends with their projects. This experience provided her with the opportunity to develop her skills and gradually gain confidence in her abilities.
