Flourishing in the hands of colonial women in the isolated province of New Mexico, women worked their yarn into colcha embroidery. A century later, colcha faced oblivion as commercial cloth became more available. This book looks at the history, beauty, and various styles of New Mexico colcha embroidery and tells the uplifting story of how a small group of determined women revived a Hispanic cultural tradition destined for extinction.
