Tukusan Tsugi


Here's my entry to the Blogger's Quilt Festival being organised by Amy  As I'm in a Japanese frame of mind after the sashiko workshop at the weekend I thought I'd share my Tukusan Tsugi (Many Patch) quilt made in May this year from a pattern in Fabrications magazine (issue 59). 
I've acquired a lot of Japanese fabric, I just love it, and thought this quilt design showcased the fabrics beautifully.  The fabrics come from shops all over the world, including in Florida and in New Zealand, but not from Japan! I am visiting Japan next year so I hope to replenish my supplies!
As always this quilt came with some learning - in this case, not to use polycotton sheeting for backing fabric in an attempt to save money, disappointing results, yucky to use and to feel!
I hope you are enjoying the Festival, it's very inspiring isn't it.  Thank you very much for visiting my blog, God bless you, Lis.
