A deep maroon line outlines each ray and then wanders off into spirals and hooks, so the maze work fills every scrap of spare ground around them. It brings a breath of the sea indoors, calm and a little playful at once. The panel is 15.5 inches wide and 11 inches high, easy to frame or to sew into a cushion. It belongs in a bathroom, a beach house or any room where you want to feel close to the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMolas are built by stacking several layers of colored cotton, then cutting down through one layer at a time so the colors underneath show through, and turning every raw edge under and stitching it closed by hand. The technique is called reverse appliqué, and a good panel is judged by how fine the stitches are and how many layers deep the cutting goes. This one came from Guna Yala, the San Blas islands off Panama's Caribbean coast, where the designs draw on the birds, fish, plants and geometric patterns of the islands and rainforest. It is ready to frame, mount, or sew into a pillow or a quilt panel, and no two are ever alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1991, TraderBrock celebrates the handcraft of Latin America's indigenous peoples.
