Handmade large high quality quilt made by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras
Description
Just looking at the picture of this maker brings a smile to my face! This quilt was made by Dilvia and her mother Maribel. Maribel is so shy and quiet so it took me awhile to get to know her. It turns out Maribel and I are the same age! This quilt Personal Ensign is a perfect scrap quilt. With the sales of their quilts these two are saving so they can get a common washing machine to use and share with 4 other women that live next to each other.
