Talk:Arpillera

An "Arpillera" depicts scenes from daily life. These 3D brightly colored textiles are handmade by Peruvian women. They have a wonderful and highly detailed 3 dimensional nature created through the application of different motifs including people, animals, fruit and vegetables set in the landscape. Often a handwritten note describing the scene is placed in a pocket on the back of the piece.

Each panel will vary slightly as each piece is handmade. Sueanthony (talk) 00:19, 11 October 2012 (UTC)
