And what a feast is being prepared for the hungry guests that sit at the central table. Horses are being used to fetch wood for the fires, chickens and pigs are being killed for the feast, musicians play on and all the while birds feed their young in their nests and bugs and birds roam the cloth.
This original piece of artwork demonstrates a depth of quality and expertise in hand embroidery. The cooperative community of Otomi embroiderers in Mexico are an inspiration and set the standard for the highest quality of traditional folk art. This piece has taken many months to hand embroider, worked in cotton on a cream cotton background using two main stiches, closed herringbone and stem stitch. These types of pieces can take up to 3 months to work.
This fantastic wall hanging is a stunning piece of folk artwork and will be admired for generations to come.For more details see Our Makers Page.
The embroidery has been made up into a wall hanging in our workshop in Wiltshire, it is backed with a ticking cotton and has a weighted bottom edge (a slot with a wooden batten inserted into) and a Velcro strip at the top. A batten will need to be attached to the wall for the Velcro to be stuck to. This stunning hanging comes with Instructions and everything that you need for hanging it.
