I shall certainly be making a Kimono Quilt one day, but I don't think I will be able to make such a good job of the quilting as you have - it's so neat and even. The quilting on the sashing is especially beautiful.

That's absolutely stunning! I've seen Susan Briscoe's original quilt (as photographed in her book, "Japanese Inspirations"), at an English quilt show. Yours is just as lovely. It's a super book andI've used it too, for the "Igeta" (well curb) quilt. Well done!
