At Honduras Threads, every product tells a story of collaboration and craftsmanship. The Stitched Network pillow features a unique design by highly regarded American artist Catherine MacMahon, brought to life by Honduran artisan Maria Ordonez. Maria and the rest of the women of the Honduras Threads collective learned their advanced embroidery skills from American embroidery experts to master their craft and produce exceptional, intricate designs.
100% of every purchase goes directly back to the artisan's collective, where it’s reinvested into their community and continuing education. Their work does more than create beautiful pillows and table runners—it fosters dignity, self-respect, and opportunities for growth.
Since 2002, the women of the Honduras have made every home-good on our website possible. Using their business skills and artistic talents, they handcraft each unique product with care and precision.
About the Artist
From an early age, art and design have always been Heather Bancroft’s passion. I’m constantly inspired by the world around me, especially nature, said Bancroft. It seemed fitting to draw something organic in form to fit a perfect square. Searching for balance, so that the two could coexist in harmony. Heather received her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design, where she majored in Graphic Design. For the last 20 years, she has been able to express her creativity as the Creative Director for a beauty and wellness company.
