Description
 
Each Mixed Huipil Guatemalan Patchwork Quilt is absolutely unique and each is a work of art. The center is made from one entire Huipile [Mayan Embroidered Blouse], and it is surrounded with dozens of oversized embroidered patches.

Guatemalan patchwork quilts are renowned for their beauty and many people use them for tapestries or wall hangings. They are handcrafted from cotton patches and each is unique. Each quilt has a black backing which creates a very dramatic look. They have tabs sewn on the corners to allow them to be hung as tapestries. Like most hand-made patchwork quilts, they should be hand washed using cold water and hung to dry.

It is made by a Maya cooperative in Guatemala.

All quilts have free shipping within the continental U.S. via FedEx Ground.

This quilt is breathtaking! December 20, 2006
Reviewer: Lisa  from Framingham, MA United States  
When I ordered this quilt, I was looking for something to pass down to my daughter that showed something of her Mayan heritage.  I thought a huipil quilt would give her a bit of an understanding of how beautiful and special each village's patterns are.  Never in my dreams did I expect the HEAVY, beautifully made, awe-inspiring quilt that I received.  Once the holidays are over, I plan to order another in a smaller size to use on my dining room table.  These quilts are the finest works of art!!!
