otomi moment

When I lived in Mexico, the indigenous Otomi indian women would walk around from door to door selling their hand-stitched fabrics out of baskets they carried on their heads.

No one wanted them then and you could buy them for a steal. Now they have become all the rage and the last time I was in Mexico they were being sold in fancy boutiques for many hundreds of dollars. You can also get them online at Jacaranda Home.  I love the way people use the colorful ones for kids rooms, bedspreads, headboards, etc.. But I have never seen anyone use a white stitching on natural background for upholstery (the white on natural is also rare). I think it would be so sophisticated and a great way to respect the heritage while making it glamorous and sexy. Can you think of a new way to use Otomi fabric?
