Handmade quilt by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras

Description

Her living situation consists of a one-room house shared with her grandmother and her deaf and mute uncle. Despite the challenges they face, Irma takes on the responsibility of supporting her family, but she yearns for a brighter future.

To channel her aspirations and contribute to her dreams, Irma finds solace and purpose in sewing hexagon quilts. Through her skillful needlework, she transforms fabric pieces into beautiful quilts. Each hexagon meticulously sewn together represents Irma's determination, creativity, and unwavering commitment to her goals.
