Your Day of the Dead quilts are lovely! They brought back a memory that makes me chuckle - I took my mom and my grandmother to a quilt show in Portland a few years back, and there was an absolutely gorgeous D.o.o.D quilt hanging in the show. My 88 y.o. grandmother tsk-tsked and was very disapproving; she didn't think it at all appropriate to have skulls hanging in a quilt show. I tried to explain to her the historical and cultural significance, but she didn't seem to get it (maybe I didn't explain it well). I remember chuckling to myself and thinking it was a good thing I didn't take her to QuiltCon, which most certainly would have a quilt or two hanging that she would have found even more offensive! 😆
