Handmade quilt by women in San Pedro Sula, Honduras
Description
Dilvia, a remarkable 28-year-old mother, has showcased her talent and creativity through the creation of this stunning zigzag quilt. Despite her petite stature, Dilvia's dedication and hard work shine through as she collaborates with her mother on their quilt projects.
Living in a humble 15' x 15' house with her husband and two children, Dilvia cherishes the safety and security it provides. Thanks to the generous donations from One Common Thread supporters, her family was able to build a safe home. Dilvia is grateful for the opportunity to create a cozy space for her loved ones within the confines of their small but cherished abode.
The herringbone quilt is a testament to Dilvia's skill and determination. Each stitch represents the love and care she pours into her work, as she weaves together intricate patterns to form a stunning design. Dilvia's collaborative efforts with her mother not only showcase their bond but also highlight their shared commitment to providing for their family.
