It is my understanding that this is for the quilts that are being mailed from outside of the US. This way they don't need to mail them to the US and then have them sent to Japan; they can go directly to Japan.
No, the request from the Tokyo office of Patchwork Quilt Tsushin Magazine (the magazine that QNM is working with in Japan), is that quilts being mailed directly to them not be mailed until May 1st at the earliest. The country of origin does not matter.
Sorry, I guess I didn't make myself clear. The ones that are being sent to the Colorado address should be there before April 30th. Those that are not being sent to the Colorado address, but being mailed directly to Japan, are to be sent after May 1st.
