Mexican textiles, continuing an ancient pre-<br />

Hispanic tradition are produced by about sixty<br />

indigenous groups and are unique, amazingly<br />

diverse, very colorful and beautifully designed.<br />

It is one of the crafts that evolves with people,<br />

now emerging as a fusion of old and new that<br />

never ceases to surprise.<br />

Most textiles are still made by women on traditional<br />

back-strap looms or at the textile factories<br />

on old foot pedal looms from the colonial<br />

period. The most common fibers are cotton<br />

and wool, although silk was also introduced by<br />

Europeans.<br />

Textiles from the<br />
