Yoko Saito is a quilting leader in the use of quiet shades of taupe and fastidious attention to detail. This year a special exhibit at the International Great Quilt Festival in Tokyo will feature the work of her group of students to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the birth of Beatrix Potter with "The World of Peter Rabbit." Patricia Belyea at Okan Arts has written about Yoko and visiting the festival to see the exhibit.
Star Members can learn more about Yoko Saito in Episode Show 1505 with Priscilla Noble: East Meets West. Priscilla is a quilter familiar with the Japanese design aesthetic and was the obvious (authorized) choice to translate, publish, and distribute the works of Yoko Saito.
