In the 1980s, Mrs. Alejandra Tamayo moved to Edgefield County and brought with her a love of many arts including cross-stitching, knitting, crocheting, and oil painting. She watched as her mother made cross-stitch designs and knitted and learned through observation. She teaches children herself now, at a local elementary school where she volunteers her time and her talents.
