I too love Asian prints and you have showcased them beautifully, especially in that first quilt, which I adore and will have to play with that idea. I have a set of the panel of the geisha's you used on the back of the Kimono quilt. I adore it and you chose a very nice way to showcase it as the back of the kimono quilt. You made the quilt truly reversable as both sides are equally stunning and the all over clamshell quilting is just right.

I would love to have the pattern name or web site to order from, on the first photo. I absolutely love this one. I have just recently been introduced to the oriental fabric and I'm totally hooked.

All gorgeous but I like the kimonos best.

Your work is ART - any one who get a quilt made by you - has received not only your love of an art form, but a pice of your heart too. You do wonderful work.

Absolutely Stunning!!!!! :thumbup:

I am a big fan of Asian fabrics and you have some really lovely ones in your quilts. The first quilt I especially like - the way the fabrics are framed and showing off the beautiful motifs on the fabric - so lovely! The second quilt is also very pretty - you did a fabulous job on both of them!!

jansquiltn 03-20-2012 06:47 AM

How marvelous. MMMMM gives me ideas of what to do with the fabric that my mom & dad brought back from China.

Caroline S 03-20-2012 06:59 AM

All of them are so pretty. I am an Oriental fabric junkie. Great pattern ideas and nice quilting.

janisspencer 03-20-2012 07:21 AM

YOUR WORK IS BEAUTIFUL. I like all them but also would like to know of the pattern you used on the first picture. I have some fabric that my daughter in law liked that this would look good in. It is simular to that you used and your work has inspired me to try this pattern for her. Any info would be appreciated.Thank you Jan

gramquilter2 03-20-2012 07:33 AM

All 3 quilts are beautiful. Love the fabric and how each one was pieced and the quilting. Great job.

Normabeth 03-20-2012 07:34 AM

These are BEAUTIFUL!!!

MrsM 03-20-2012 07:43 AM

I love them all, but the first one really wows me.

Zephyr 03-20-2012 07:45 AM

They are all really nice, but I especially like the eye appeal of the pattern of the first one.

ItsJustMe 03-20-2012 07:46 AM

Wow! I absolutely love oriental fabric and quilts. Exquisite!

anniesews 03-20-2012 08:59 AM

A really nice job on that.

BuzzinBumble 03-20-2012 09:30 AM

Those are beautiful quilts! That must have been some lounge! You surely did justice to gorgeous fabrics.

JoanneS 03-20-2012 09:41 AM

I'm breathless! Is the first quilt pattern your own design? It's a wonderful way of showing off the beautiful fabrics you used. I love the patchwork you used in the kimonos. And your quilting is the perfect accompaniment to the fabrics.

milikaa1 03-20-2012 09:56 AM

I like them all very much.

cat2quilt 03-20-2012 11:05 AM

You did a beautiful job with all the quilts. You wrote that you love the materials and your work surely shows that love.

Lady Jane 03-20-2012 11:25 AM

Thosr are just beautiful.

pacquilter 03-20-2012 01:01 PM

Love them all! Does you have the name of the pattern for the first one?

EvelynJ 03-20-2012 01:15 PM

Awesome. Love the Kimono style. If he doesn't like them (I'm positive he will) you know that many of us really enjoyed viewing them! LOL

Evelynquilts 03-20-2012 01:20 PM

They are all beautiful !!!

oma66 03-20-2012 01:32 PM

Oh, my, the quilts are stunning to say the least!

Elaine433 03-20-2012 02:15 PM
