This quilt, "Fiesta Siesta", was inspired by the fabric. The fiesta pinatas reminded me of children's birthday parties in the park. The first "Fiesta Siesta" quilt was to be a nap quilt for little ones. A friend saw it and requested one for a charity silent auction. Later she called and asked for another because her teenage son, who only wore black, wanted to hang it in his room. Wow! These quilts are great fun to free motion quilt, so turn on the mariachi music and have a "Fiesta". |
