"Those who do the heavy labor of needlework earn less than $10 to
embroider a square about the size of a small cushion. Some artisans,
known as “dibujantes,” draw the designs onto the fabric, and earn more.
A few dibujantes, whose designs have become well-known, dream of showing
off their work to a global audience."
