    I just came back from Tokyo where I was lucky enough to attend the Tokyo International Quilt Festival.

    I have some photos here:

    Molly, thanks for sharing. I went to the show in Yokohama last November and was blown away. My friend said Tokyo was even better. Your pictures really show the beautiful work. Did you find that most of the quilting was hand done?

    Those are some really unique quilts. My favorite is the flower basket, there is a ton of applique on that one. I also really liked the one with the gray roofs. Thanks for sharing!
