Stitches made with the Heart
Toñi, ‘La Zagalica’, was born in a cave dwelling and she still today
lives in it. She is a neighbour of Guadix caves neighbourhood and she is in
love with cross-stitch works.
‘Since I was a child, I feel always attracted by this work, which I
learnt in the Padre Poveda School. I perfected it in the Cross-stitch Workshops
of the Padre Poveda Sociocultural Centre in the Guadix caves neighbourhood.
Reflecting unique images of our culture, monumental and landscape
heritage through stitches marked by 2-end thread, one by one, minute by minute,
hour by hour… until I feel sleepy,… and seeing how the work is shining in its
all splendour, it is for me a inexplained pleasure.’
Bedspreads, Tablecloths, Pictures, Bibs, Bookmarks… nothing becomes
impossible to her and anything is good for making cross-stitch works.
