Maya Backstrap Woven Cotton Cushion Cover in Grey and White 'Ceiba Tree'

Precise geometric motifs in cool blue-grey are accentuated with navy and yellow in an exquisite design. From talented members of Women United for Artisan Development, the cushion cover is woven by hand on a backstrap loom. Cording defines the borders, and the back is solid white. 'This was inspired by the ceiba tree, the national tree of Guatemala,' the artisans confide. 'We learned this motif from our grandmothers.

Should one of the threads snag, they suggest you pull it back into place from the back of the fabric with a fine crochet hook.
