A Japanese inspired quilt.
These fabrics were so nice to sew with.
The colors are so rich and bold and laced with gold.
The backing is a quilting cotton, not a Japanese fabric. With the gold speckles, it went with the Japanese fabrics beautifully. It’s a lot of red, but so pretty.
There were enough scraps to make a pretty 20” pillow cover.
**the cover is just lying over a pillow for the photo**
More of the scraps make up the backside of the pillow cover.
With still more scraps, I made a snap pouch and wristlet keychains.
The fabrics are a bit heavier than quilting cottons, so they make into a nice weighted throw quilt ready to cuddle under.
I’m trying to avoid continually accumulating scraps. There are just some bits left. Enough to make a postcard or two.
