One of the more commonplace scenes in any San Blas village is that of a Guna mother sewing a mola as she swings her infant child to sleep in a hammock. Dressed in all her finery, including colorfully beaded arm and leg bands, golden nose ring, necklace, and earrings, she is depicted here surrounded by other members of her family inside their bamboo hut.

This image could have been taken from an illustration or is a scene of Guna's life. The size and technique of this work indicate that this is probably an older mola. Although this type of scene is often represented in molas, this particular work is unusual and uniquely done. This mola may even be the original from which others were copied.
