Handmade quilt by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras
Description
Kendy's sweet quilt, featuring patriotic colors is a great heirloom to celebrate Independence Day. The quilt's vibrant colors and cheerful pattern create an uplifting and visually appealing piece.
At 24 years-old, Kendy carries the responsibility of being a mother to three young children while also taking care of her two sisters and brother, making her a pillar of support for her extended family. Her commitment to her loved ones is admirable, as she strives to create a nurturing environment for everyone under her care.
Kendy's desire to save money for a new roof reflects her practical approach to improving her family's living conditions. Living in San Pedro Sula with its tropical weather, having a leak-free roof is essential for protection against heavy rainfalls. Her determination to address this issue demonstrates her foresight and commitment to providing a safe and comfortable home for her family.
