Broken Fiestaware: Project Quilting, Season 13, Week 1


I indulged my recent obsession with hourglass blocks but gave up the usual two color scheme to not only indulge "all the colors" but also "all the color combinations." Instead of "Broken Dishes," let's call this one "Broken Fiestaware". The quilt is 34 inches square and is quilted along the diagonals.

  3. PERFECT name for your beautiful challenge project. I tried your method of making the hourglass units. Great fun but I had to be careful ironing or the bias edges started waving at me.

    Love the name, too! (though "a Buddy in a china shop" also suggests itself...)

  10. I can't begin to tell you how much I love this quilt--and it's perfect name. It brings back memories of visiting my dad's cousin whose kitchen was resplendent with Fiestaware. As a kid I wished I could have those dishes in our home.

  14. I love Fiestaware. Reminds me of my maternal grandmother. I would not care to see Fiestaware broken unless it looked like this - fantastic!
