When I first decided to collect Fiestaware, the hardest decision I had was in trying to decide what color to collect. So, to make it easy on myself I decided to collect one place setting of each color. As you can imagine this started to get a little out of hand, so I focussed on the bold colors because they look so great with all of the wonderful fabric that I tend to collect as well. The fabric I used here in making both the tablecloth and napkins is by Alexander Henry and called "Viva Frida." How perfect is this for Cinco de Mayo?

| Aren't these glasses fun? They work equally well for Day of the Dead as they do Cinco de Mayo. |
 |
| I make a set of napkins to go with every tablecloth that I make. I actually find hemming to be therapeutic and love having such a wide variety of napkins. These work very well on many different solids as well. |
