Barbi's Mexican
Holiday
1999
24" h x 31"w
SOLD
On a recent trip to Mexico
I was compelled to buy the glittering Barbi doll shoes at a traveling
marketplace. By the time I returned to my studio, I knew Barbi
must have worn a different pair each night of her Mexican holiday,
dancing the nights away.
The blocks are machine pieced
of mostly Bali batik fabrics, then machine quilted
with an echoing Barbi head sillhouette in each. Confetti pieces
and shoes are
hand tied with cotton floss.
