Description
When I first imagined Honduras I don't think I ever realized the tropical paradise this place could be. San Pedro Sula is where most of our ladies live and it is located about 1 hour drive from the Caribbean Sea. This city is the second largest city in Honduras and in a valley surrounded by lush palm trees and flowers of all types. So to reflect the beauty of the area, Juli made this gorgeous palm tree quilt with the water, sand and mountains in the scene. It is so pretty and would be a great moment for someone who has traveled to Central America, or has a house by the ocean. It truly is a tropical paradise.
