My friend added sashiko rows She also added fabric fortune cookies and other embellishments and made the geisha bag that my quilt came in. I now use it every day as a 'purse' and a matching geisha is on the back of the quilt as a label
Bottom row.

Featured in The Quiltmaker January/February '06 issue was a quilt called "Being Koi" that showed off Asian fabric very simply by using triangle squares paired light and dark, pieced together to form larger triangles surrounded by a border. A diagram of a koi was used for the quilting. You would have to see the photo to appreciate it!

I found an origami flower block and I believe I have seen the crane somewhere but I don't find it now.
