    Very pretty! I love Japanese quilts and will be making my first one very soon. Going to try the taupes but they are hard to find. Since our didn't care for the book, would you mind sharing its title so I don't get the same one? Purple is my favorite color so needless to say I love your couch!!!

    Thanks again for all the awesome comments! For those that asked, the name of the book is Japanese Taupe Quilts by Susan Briscoe.
