Artisan - Petrona Marcelina Hernandez de la Torre
Zinacantan, Mexico

My name is Petrona Marcelina. I am originally from Zinacantán. I am 29 years old and I am dedicated to handicrafts. I started embroidering since I was a little girl and as time went by, my mother taught me how to weave using a backstrap loom. With time, I improved and that is what has helped me to get income along with my daughter.
