Yokohama Quilt Week: A Feast for the Eyes

Were you expecting chrysanthemum pictures? You're going to have to wait a couple of days. Is that a collective moan of disappoinment I hear? I didn't think so.

The (indoor) quilt show in Yokohama seemed a better bet than the (outdoor) flower show in Tokyo on this cold and rainy day. Weather permitting, I'll get to Shinjuku Gyoen on Saturday.

Here are just a few of the hundreds of quilts we saw today. Cameras were prohibited in some areas so I can't show you the Russian quilts or the top award winners or - my personal favorites - the "President Barack" series. You will just have to rely on your imaginations.
