I don't have any right now. The last I had I actually bought in Okinawa, Japan when I was visiting my daughter in the Air Force. I recently purchased an Asian panel and as soon as I can get to a LQS I will be looking for Asian prints!

I just finished all the blocks for a ying Yang quilt where I used Asian fabrics and Batiks. Once I finish the center than I have to figure out what kind of a border to put on it. I hated the one the teacher used. Just didn't go with her center at all. Looked like she just wanted to be done or had a deadline so thru a spiky border on. Ugly!!!! I might do an appliqué border or something like that. Jan

strange you should ask. LOL I have a collection of Asian fabrics. I just added 12 more. I had a brainstorm to make a Dresden plate using a charm pack of Asian fabrics on a black background. I've looked and looked for Asian charms packs and couldn't find any. Good thing I've collected Asian fat quarters for a while. I"m waiting for my template to arrive so I can begin. Thanks to the lady that gave the link for the Missouri Quilt Shop.I'm sorry I don't remember her name. But she's the that gave me the idea after watching it on utube.

I have some black on white and white on black fabrics with caligraphy on them. Have no idea what to do with them at the moment. I had them in my hand and then realized I wasn't sure what to do with them, but my boyfriend convinced me to still buy them anyways if I liked them. Also have some white fabric with black caligraphy and red stamps on it (it was on sale at JoAnn's!).
I want to try and make a origami crane quilt so I'm hoping to get more Asian themed fabrics (hopefully more than just caligraphy ones).
