Guatemalan Glyphs

I love the motifs on the weavings in the highlands of Guatemala. I had a collection of brilliantly colored woven fabrics from there. I wanted to combine the two to get the best of both.

Hand appliquéd, negative and positive, machine pieced and machine quilted with "prairie points" accents.
