I found this quilt on ohfransson.com and knew I had to make it.
Since I am living in Japan and been to Tokyo to ride the subway.
It is still no quilted yet....like so many of my toppers!!!
Here is a link to ohfransson.com with the idea:

And here is a link to see the Tokyo subway map.

Very cool. I'm wondering if there's patterns for subways of other cities. I'm intrigued.

cool...like it! I'd just frame it and hang it until it's quilted.

yours turned out GREAT!!

I saved all the patterns and I hope to make this one over the summer - and to use up a ton of my scraps in the process!

Dunno, but got me thinking about making one for the London Tube. Looks very similar in scope to Tokyo, plus it's in English <g> and has cool names like "Elephant & Castle", "Tooting Bec", and "Mudchute". And I can mark "home" at the Loughton station for my hubby.
