Monica Sosaya, at 85, is the "Grand Dame" of Santa Fe New Mexico's annual Traditional Spanish Market. She is an acknowledged master of the traditional colonial Spanish needlework called "Colcha" and has taught generations of new "Colcheras". In this video, she teaches the basic Colcha stitch, and shows some of her work and basic Colcha patterns to a beginning student.
