Jenny at Romany Quilting (and in New Zealand) enjoyed a great exhibition of kimono from the collection of world-renown
Yoshiko Wada, textile and shibori expert. There were also some exquisite netsuke on display. She has shared some photos and a review on her
blog which is well worth a look. Thanks Jenny, I wish I could have been there.
I am writing an article about blogs for new Zealand quilter. I can't believe that I discovered Jenny's blog by looking at yours. Jenny (no last name) lives in Upper Hutt and wrote about the Meissen Kimono quilts from Yoshiko Wada's collection. I was in two of Yoshiko's clases that have been running the last 10 days and helped to get the exhibition to the venue.
