Artisan - Pascuala Vazquez Perez
Zinacantan, Mexico
At the age of eight, I began to weave as a hobby. I saw my mother and my sister doing it so, I started to gather the threads that were left over and then I was taught to make other pieces on the backstrap loom. At the age of ten, I sold my first bag while I was on the side of the road. That pushed me to continue improving and if I studied I spent every afternoon weaving so that I could improve in my work and sell it until the end of the week.
