Handmade quilt by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras

Description

This beautiful quilt, lovingly named Hollywood Gardens, is a testament to the talent and dedication of our Maker. The quilt features a captivating design of vibrant flowers, meticulously stitched together with small stitches. The attention to detail and precision in the quilt's construction make it truly remarkable.

To enhance its comfort and coziness, the quilt is adorned with a luxurious aqua minky backing. The softness of the minky fabric adds an extra layer of warmth and snuggliness, making it perfect for cuddling up on chilly nights or enjoying moments of relaxation.

Damaris and her mother Ruth exemplify the spirit of hard work and determination. Sewing has become a means for them to support themselves and their family, highlighting their resourcefulness and dedication.

Damaris's pursuit of English classes demonstrates her ambition and desire to broaden her horizons. By learning English, she is equipping herself with valuable skills that can open doors to better opportunities, including the possibility of attending college. Her aspiration to further her education is commendable, especially considering that having a high school certificate is relatively rare for Honduran women.

The journey towards achieving higher education is often challenging, but Damaris's determination and commitment to her studies will undoubtedly contribute to her success. By investing in her own personal growth and expanding her knowledge and skills, she is laying the foundation for a brighter future.

Damaris's story serves as an inspiration to others, showing that with hard work, perseverance, and access to education, it is possible to break barriers and pursue one's dreams.
