Guatemalan Textiles

Priscilla's love for Guatemalan textiles - their history, tradition, construction, patterns, and colors guided her extensive travels throughout Guatemala in search of the best local hand-weavers. Their superior workmanship is represented in her art quilts. Priscilla is excited to have become a distributor of these fine textiles, suitable for quilting, wearables, and home furnishings. She is offering a small but diverse selection to you through her online catalog.

Priscilla is frequently asked if these textiles are really handmade. "Yes, these are fine, high quality, labor-intensive textiles. Everything about them is handmade- the thread is hand-knotted, hand-dyed and then hand-woven, using ancestral foot-looms to produce a fabric width of 34" to 36", a rarity in modern times. Many of the designs, patterns and colors have been passed on from generation to generation, for centuries. These textiles are an heirloom in their own right, perfect for quilters, home sewers, designers, and artists alike."
