Japanese Quilts at Festival of Quilts 2026


We were utterly fascinated by the most beautiful set of Japanese quilts at Festival in 2026. There was a delightful gallery by Sachiko Yoshida, and many gorgeous quilts in the competitions (mostly in the Traditional category, and almost all made from re-cycled kimono silks.) My photos do not do these justice, sorry, they absolutely glowed...
