Title 20 Quilters in Japan Exhibition Book
Publication year 1996
Publisher Asahi Newspaper


This book contains 60 wonderful quilts works from the 2nd exhibition '20 Quilters in Japan' in 1996. As the title shows, these 60 works were made by 20 quilters.
All photos are printed in color.

There are English translations on each page for the titles of works (and name of quilters), so you can know what each quilter wants to express through their works.

Ms. Jacqueline M Atkins, a specialist in American fold art and a quilt historian, says in this book (text in English),

Photos for works in this item shows both of the whole part of works in some beautiful places and the exquisite details.

Even if you don't understand Japanese, you will enjoy this book through many photos.
