"Los Perros de Panama" (The Dogs of Panama) by Kathleen Kennedy-Dennis. Original Mola-inspired design. 2014 Houston International Quilt Festival
Molas from Panama
The traditional costume of a Kuna woman consists of a patterned blue cotton wrapped skirt, red and yellow headscarf, arm and leg beads, gold nose rings and earrings and the many layered and finely sewn mola panel blouse. The artistry of a mola reflects a synthesis of traditional Kuna culture with the influences of the modern world. Mola art developed when Kuna women had access to store bought yard goods.

Kuna women and their Molas (a type of hand detailed quilt) love their art. Love my Panama.
