I know nothing about the Spanish dance called Fandango, except that I like the name. The word Fandango evokes images of lively music and joyful movement. This quilt strikes me that way also. It is full of motion, lovely bright colors, and joyful curves. There is a shape at the center of the design that looks vaguely like a woman’s head and the lively curves seem to float on the air the way a woman’s garments would if she were dancing.
