Just under the wire last week I finally got over to the New England Quilt Museum to see Quilts Japan - I mean, wow!  One of my favorites:

And, in the classroom, be prepared to have your socks knocked off by the quilts of Gladi Porche.  This is up until April  28th so you have some time to get over there to see her amazing quilts.  There are several inspired by Japan, and one is more amazing than the next.  Love. 



Gladi has blogged a lot about the Quilts Japan quilts - click here  and also peruse her other posts - very inspiring and if you've missed Quilts Japan, reading Gladi's posts is the next best thing. 

Both exhibitions so wonderful - colorful... just amazing!
