Handmade quilt by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras
Description
Isabel is 19-years-old and has a 4-year-old son, and now a new baby girl. She made this beautiful quilt perfectly named Hello Sunshine. When Isabel was two-months pregnant, her baby’s father was mistaken for someone else and killed by a gang. She recently re“married” and her young family lives at home with her mother. As any teenager she longs for a better life for both she, her son, her new daughter, husband, and mother. This opportunity has given her hope for a brighter future. She is also grateful for the donations to One Common Thread that have given her some support to rely on.
Could this quilt be any cuter? Isabel did a marvelous job.
