There are two embroidered blouses in the collection, most people look for blouses embroidered in cotton thread, however these are rare since it is much faster to work with the synthetic yarns and is more typical of what the people wear today. One of the collective is located in the center of Hueyapan , the mannequins dressed in traditional clothing were captured from video and are not as clear as I would like. Recently the textile collective has been attending shows promoted by the Mexican government.
