    Description

    I recently got in a shipment from Puebla
    with a group of traditional blouses....
    . This one was was
    made in the Nahua community of Xaltepec in Puebla Mexico
    .  On the front the image of the
    Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe
    has been created using
    Tecnica de Bordado Hilvanado
    / Basted Embroidery Technique. And using the same technique
    the artist has created an image of a Swan on the front side and a Parrot (?) on the back.  This extraordinary blouse was made by a woman named
    Margarita Cruz
    .
    It measures;
    15 inches across the shoulders and 20 1/2 inches from arm pit to arm pit (total 41 inches around) and 26 inches Long.
    It will fit a Small to Medium Size woman.
    This Blouse is a wonderful example of
    contemporary fashion trends
    such as; South Western, Frida Kahlo, Hippie, Santa Fe, Peasant, Boho Chic, Cow Girl Style!
    Hand Wash
    with a mild soap.... line dry!!!
    By purchasing items made in Mexico you are
    helping these Nahua women support their families and save their cultural heritage and traditions.
