She (Yoko Saito) was so very pleased to be able to attend the Houston shows this year and have her quilts and bags in the exhibition.
Thank you to all of you who love her work!

Thank you so much for this interview Priscilla, Ricky and Yoko. Yoko's work and books are beautiful and Priscilla's show (1505) is one I watch regularly for inspiration.

Thank you Ricky and Priscilla for putting together this interview. I was unable to attend Houston this year, and was so disappointed, as I knew Yoko Saito would be there. I am really happy she was able to come to the show and share her beautiful work with attendees. :-)
