Japanese quilts have a well-deserved reputation for their unparalleled attention to detail and fine workmanship, as well as hours (if not years) of hand stitching, so when an exhibit of Japanese quilts is announced, one should take note to try and attend.
For more than 40 years, the Japanese Handicraft Instructors’ Association (JHIA) has been promoting handicraft in Japan by educating and training instructors in a variety of specialties. The JHIA boasts 6,000 quilters among its 12,000 members. Their biannual Quilt Nihon Exhibition is the largest international quilting contest in Japan. The 11th competition drew 377 quilt entries from 15 countries.
Judging took place in November 2011, and the best of those quilts will be featured in a traveling exhibition to include a stop at the New England Quilt Museum.
Can't make the exhibition? Check out these stunning works from the recent PIQF show here.
