Story Behind the Art:
Maria joined a women's group to learn textile arts. 'At first, we'd create our patchwork wall hangings from old clothes. One day, with the little bit of money we each could contribute, we bought bolts of fabric and spools of yarn and thread. With these materials, we created our first pieces to sell.'
