The Jardín Top features a square neckline with intricate hand embroidery, combining comfort and style. Crafted from 100% cotton woven on a pedal loom by Master Weaver Claudio Marcos, it is finished with hand-embroidered details and stitching by artisans Victoria Marcos, Beatriz Bello, and Paula Martinez.

This top is part of Entretejiendo Voces' Summer Collection, the result of many years of community work in Hueyapan, Puebla. The collection was developed through workshops aimed at enhancing local technical and creative capabilities. The embroidery featured in these garments is traditional to the region, with designs and iconography that are integral to its cultural identity. The knowledge of embroidery techniques and the significance of each design have been passed down through generations, ensuring that the artisans’ heritage is preserved in every stitch.

Durable, versatile, and breathable, each piece is created with sustainability in mind, maximizing fabric use to reduce waste. All wool fabrics and threads are dyed with natural dyes, using methods also handed down through generations. These dyes produce solid, long-lasting colors that are highly resistant. Designed for everyday wear, the collection’s silhouettes adapt to a range of body types. Every item is handmade in small batches to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship.

The pedal loom technique is a traditional weaving method that blends artistry and functionality, resulting in textiles that are both beautiful and durable. This technique employs a foot-operated loom, allowing weavers to create intricate patterns with precision and efficiency.

Artisans at Entretejiendo Voces use 100% cotton and wool as primary materials, enhancing the quality and appeal of their final products. Cotton is renowned for its softness, breathability, and versatility, while wool offers warmth and resilience, making both fibers ideal choices for various textiles. When woven on a pedal loom, these natural materials create fabrics that are comfortable to wear and long-lasting.

The process begins with the careful selection of cotton and wool yarns, often dyed with natural methods to achieve rich, vibrant colors. The weaver sets up the loom, threading the yarn through the heddles and weaving shuttle. With each pedal press, the loom's mechanism lifts and lowers the warp threads, enabling the creation of unique patterns and textures.

Entretejiendo Voces is committed to working with natural products to create one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect the artisans' skills and cultural heritage. Each textile tells a story, rooted in tradition and crafted with care. The use of cotton and wool not only ensures high quality but also supports sustainable practices, as these fibers are renewable resources that can be cultivated responsibly.

The pedal loom technique, using natural materials like cotton and wool, highlights the beauty of craftsmanship and sustainability. It creates textiles that are not only visually stunning but also full of the rich traditions and stories of the artisans who create them.

Entretejiendo Voces is a collective of artisans, creators, anthropologists, and artists dedicated to preserving and evolving traditional craft techniques in a modern context. The collective serves as a canvas woven with the voices of women who express their stories in Nahuatl, Spanish, and the languages of the heart.

Since 2015, Entretejiendo Voces has collaborated with the Sitaltsin Cooperative, conducting innovation workshops where participants learn and share the processes of design, assembly, and craftsmanship. With the guidance of Master Weaver Claudio Marcos, the collective produces cotton textiles on pedal looms. The talented team, including Beatriz Bello, Paula Martínez, Victoria Marcos, Francisca Martínez, Evarista Lozada, Julia Monterde, Juana Silveria, and Lila Ceballos, contributes their expertise and creativity to every piece.

The artisans embroider visions born in dreams, dye fabrics using colors from flowers and leaves, and rely on collective resilience to make life more meaningful. Each piece represents a fusion of cultures and knowledge, crafted from recycled cotton, Mexican wool, and natural dyes, all woven and embroidered by hand. Every item is proudly made in Mexico, reflecting the collective’s dedication to social and environmental well-being.

Entretejiendo Voces releases small, versatile annual collections designed to complement everyday wardrobes throughout the year. They prioritize high-quality materials, natural fibers, and recycled elements, with all wool garments dyed using natural, eco-friendly methods. As a cooperative, their focus remains on promoting the welfare of both the community and the planet.
