Your quilt is absolutely stunning! Circles are seen so often in Japanese artwork, so it is the perfect theme. Your quilting is a wonderful complement to the beautiful fabrics. I LOVE your quilt!

Oh, just love it. I to love Asian fabrics, have a large selection. I've made one quilt (I'll share a picture when I get the curtians done that go with it). Then I'd like to do one like yours if you don't mind my copying. I also used circles in mine. I had a pattern "Maru Bed quilt from Kona Bay & Asian fabric magazine. The pattern had you sew a backing on the circle and turn it inside out. The circles came out perfect. Than I appliqued the circles by machine.

Feline fanatic, This is beyond awesome. I love how you featured each print & how the applique tied it all together withe the quilting to enhance it all. I agree with the others in what a beautiful & artistic endeavor this is.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Just lovely! Your quilting is beautiful, and since ginkgos are my favorite leaves, I especially love them on the quilt.

I hand appliqued them using silk thread so the stitches were invisible. When I quilted it I SID around the applique but a couple of the circles seemed a bit compromised to me, in that they were coming loose so in some places I reinforced the applique by catching the edge when quilting it.

Thank you everyone for all your kind comments. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy all over :) I can't wait to hear what my mom thinks when she sees it.

What a great quilt. Fussy cutting your prints really worked. I like that you set your blocks on point. Thea are such beautifully fabrics. But your border is fantastic!! Great job.

Love your quilt and quilting. This seems like the perfect way to "showcase" your lovely Asian fabrics. The background color ways really make the quilt more beautiful. Thanks for sharing your talent.
