    I think, but am not sure that this large blanket was made by the Quiche in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala. It's an older piece. i currently live with two Santero Indians from Todos Santos, Guatemala. They bring out their traditional clothes when they go to church - about once or twice per year. They both say that this piece is very old. [i think it's 1960s or 70s]
