Craft Story
The story of Arpilleras: Applique begins in Santiago, Chile, where Embroidery is less a trade than an inheritance. Using cotton and a block-printed finish, the maker builds each piece the way it has always been built. No two are ever identical; every small variation is the mark of a human hand.
