A course by Flora Te
Florencia Toyos, better known as Flora Te, is a self-taught embroiderer and illustrator. His path began a few years ago, while making handmade notebooks and decided to incorporate some embroidery on the covers. Following this, he began to learn techniques of Mexican embroidery, embroidery with stones, or cutting and sewing for haute couture; also, in parallel he illustrated and delved into watercolor, until he realized that he had to mix his two passions. He started taking pictures of his embroidered illustrations and sharing them on social networks. This is how he started selling his products, making his Flora Te project real.
Their diburdaditos (small embroidered and colorful characters), became part of a collection of clothes of the merchandising of a rock band.
