Every year at the show, there is a section where the famous quilt teachers, 'sensei', can show their work. Among the many beautiful quilts, I selected these, to share with you. Yoshiko Kurihara (栗原淑子) makes portraits of geometric shapes. This title is Carnival in Venice. Michiko Shima's (島道子) trademark is bias tape. Her appliqué shapes are always edged with bias tape, often metallic. Emiko Yoshino (吉野恵美子) calls her quilt Having Started with Log Cabin. I think she made a really beautiful quilt from this very classic pattern. The blue and the white silk squares are not Log Cabins but they set off the Cabins well. If anyone can tell a story with a quilt, it is Yoko Sekita (関田陽子). Her quilts are full of tiny details, fun and charming. Here she is showing scenes from famous children's stories. Please notice the amount of fine details. Among them you can see a scene from The Emperor's New Clothes. and here is Sleeping Beauty I don't remember Megumi Mizuno (水野めぐみ) from previous years. She made a quilt with charming Japanese 'kokeshi' dolls. These wooden dolls come in many forms and decorations depending on the region. They are much loved interior decorations. Another popular item in Japanese homes are wind chimes. These are made from glass. The quilter is well-established Suzuko Koseki (小関鈴子).
