Bird making blooming on the Tahuayo River

Tulio Davila

One touching moment was a comment from artisan Marilia was an accomplished weaver.  She told us with a smile, "I enjoyed making the bird and want to keep practicing. It was the first time I had woven something like this.  I didn’t think I could do it at first, but I liked it and while it wasn’t easy, it wasn’t too difficult.  I felt very supported by the facilitators and my companions, which made it very comfortable and fun.  I learned a lot and am motivated to keep improving."
