I am a day of the dead fan myself. This is truly a great piece of art. I love it. I am learning to art quilt. Hopefully some day I will be as good. Thanks for the inspiration.

I can see how this might not be everyone's bag of cats, but I love it. My quilts are usually quite traditional, although I did some traditional sailor jerry style tattoo themed quilts a while ago, and this has inspired me to do another, and step it up a little. Above all, I am always looking for ways to use the tons of black scraps I have, as black can be boring in a quilt sometimes, but yours are anything but. The skeleton queen is beautiful, but your other quilts are equally striking while being more everyday, even though you have a theme, there is a lot of versalility there.

I have a bit of a skeleton phobia. But I love and appreciate the work and creativity of this quilt. I just couldn't have it staring at me. Ha!
