El Pastor is a small community in the vicinity of Santa Teresa. The costumes are not a handicraft item, most women either make their own costume or sub contract with other. This seamstress makes the costumes on a treadle sewing machine. Bob Freund 27/04/2006

The Cora really do not sell their products outside of their terretory. From time to time I see a costume available to purchase at craft shows. This lady makes the traditional costume on a treadle sewing machine. She tells me that the customers bring their own material in the color combination they want and she puts them together.
