Traditions 8" doll with a traditional tzute or carrying cloth
Martina and Catarina were two of the first weavers
who I worked with to make traditional Mayan doll clothes. We worked
together to figure out the size, and they came through with beautiful
small huipils for 18" dolls.
The first delivery arrived in the traditional
tzute or carrying cloth of Santa Catarina Palopo
2003
Making the doll huipils takes many steps.
First the weaver prepares the warp for weaving and then weave the
huipils. Here Martina and Catarina carefully finish the neckhole and
sew up the seams
By 2003 my doll Vanessa had made many friends
and Catarina's daughter, Conception (right) had grown quite a bit from the first
time I met her.
