It didn't occur to me why at the time, but I kept taking pictures of the gorgeous tiles when I was on vacation in Nicaragua. These photos are from the city of Granada, which was established by Spanish colonists in the 1500's.
Now I know it's because I'm a quilter!
Hope you enjoy the inspiration too

The second one reminds me of a Celtic knot I can see why you thought they would make great blocks.By the way my daughter just got back from a mission trip to Nicaragua a couple weeks ago she loved it.
