Can you see the snails and read the inscription? This quilt put a smile on my face!


Here are some Japanese or Japan inspired quilts:

This is Fusako Takaido's 'Garden of Dream'


Gail Casimir has also made a garden; 'A Japanese Garden'

      I warmly recommend going to a quilt show to see the quilts 'in the flesh'. Today I went to see a few Welsh quilts in Stowmarket. One had about 17500 tiny hexagons.
