Made in Peru

Applique wall hanging, 'At the Beach'

Swimming, drifting on beach toys and sailing Hobie Cats, vacationers enjoy the Peruvian seashore. Whole families kick off their sandals to sunbathe or picnic on the beach beneath a sunny sky. Working in the traditional art of arpillería (patchwork), Marcela Paredes creates a wall hanging of exquisite detail. Each tiny figure is crafted in three dimensions and lavishly embroidered.

Marcela Paredes

"My name is Marcela Paredes Huacles and I was born on May 28, 1945, in Huancavelica, in the Peruvian hillsides. I learned the art of arpilleria from the organizations created by working mothers. My motivation was a will to succeed and I have been dedicated to this art for 20 years now. I hope my arpilleria pieces will reach other homes around the world, so people can appreciate Peruvian customs."

Customer Reviews of Marcela Paredes
