Friday is a big day for @centro_textiles_cusco and @abbysyarns! It's the Black Friday sale! There is about a metric ton worth of incredible textiles from the weavers surrounding the Cusco area of Peru. These beautiful textiles you see here were all SPINDLE SPUN and handwoven on a backstrap loom. The large natural color blanket front right piece features hand-embroidered patterning for the large pattern stripes. The smaller textile to the left of the blanket also features a decorative embroidered seam that goes over the more invisible seam to join the two panels. These textiles are incredible in every way! I keep going to the studio to get them out and admire them. I cannot wait to see all the gorgeousness that will be shown in the Black Friday virtual trunk show. If you would like some beautiful Peruvian textiles of your own be sure to check out Abby and the CTTV's IG account for more information on the Black Friday virtual trunk show. To take part you'll need to purchase a $5 ticket on Abby's website and you'll receive a zoom link as well as a buyer number. More information on how things will work can be found on both IG pages as well as Abby's discord server. Sign up asap to ensure you are ready to go for tomorrow morning! #blackfridaysale #cuscoperu #cuscotextiles #peruviantextiles #spindlespun #spintoweave #backstrapweaving #weavingwithhandspun #igspinnersinspiration #spinningyarn #spinnersofinstagram #handspinnersofig #spinnersoftheworld #weaversofinstagram #handweaving #weavingyarns #igweavers
