News of the Western Belize Recreational Area, about 500 square miles of waterfalls, caves, Mayan ruins and pyramids, Belize Alps, foothills, ranches and farms, tourist accomodations of all types and description, tours and expeditions for vacationers and visitors. Even a small growing expatriate retirement group of people from different countries. In Belize, this is where it is happening, all the things that are fun and even serious, with a climate of ETERNAL SPRING.

Weaving by backstrap loom, in Western Belize
** belts and guitar straps with name on them
** Weaving shawls.
** key rings and trouser belts for the fastidious
** Men´s hand woven belts. See the fabulous parrot, on the table mat, at the end there. That was a gift to me.
All works are done by Mrs. Silvia Auxillou of Hillview, Santa Elena Town, in Western Belize. Most of her works have been ordered by custom order and sold to the customer. These are indigenous Indian patterns of the Americas.
It's so lovely to see the patterns and the tutorials on my blog being put to such nice use! I didn't know I had followers in Belize!
