Handmade quilt by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras

Description

Neidy's quilt showcases her talent and dedication as a Maker. Her role as a mother of three highlights her commitment to providing for her family and creating a better life for them.

Being part of a community of makers and having sisters who share her passion for sewing creates a supportive environment for Neidy. The bond with her fellow makers fosters a sense of camaraderie and encourages her to continue honing her craft.

In addition to her sewing work, Neidy also manages a "tienda" store at the front of her home. This entrepreneurial spirit reflects her resourcefulness and determination to generate additional income for her family. Selling chips, drinks, and small candies to others in the bordo not only serves as a source of revenue but also strengthens the community ties.

Neidy's story is an inspiring example of resilience and determination. Her work as a maker and entrepreneur showcases her strength and her desire to provide a better life for her family. Neidy's commitment to sewing and running her tienda demonstrates the positive impact she makes in her community while finding fulfillment in her work.
