My quiltin' cousin, Sue, made this beautiful quilt using Japanese fabrics!
Quilt Info:
Size: 91" X 105"
Quilting: Geisha
Batting: Quilter's Dream Batting, Wool
Thread: Glide--Sky Blue
Interesting Fact: These Japanese fabrics are looking very familiar, as I gave most of them to Sue, when we were living in Japan!
The quilting shows up great on the backing, which is closer to indigo in real life:
What a great way to feature these Japanese fabrics, Sue!
Although this is a pretty large quilt, DH managed to hold it up over the railing by himself!
I loved quilting this for you, Sue!!!
Grace and peace!!! ~Nancy

ReplyDeleteI love the pantograph you chose -- very suitable for the Japanese quilt fabrics, as the quilting design reminds me of a sashiko pattern!

Geisha was the perfect quilt design for this project; it complements both the geometry of the piecing as well as the Japanese fabrics. Well done!
