Next I need to finish piecing the bed quilt. There's another quilt percolating and of course I need to quilt the Japanese quilt...

Japanese Quilt Piecing - DONE!
Here's the new quilt top. The Japanese fabric was a real treat––besides the vibrant color and subtle designs, the different prints have different weights and textures. Some are loose or nubby or striated. It seems to work for me to choose fabric in a hurry. I bought this grouping in Cincy in August on vacation with the kids (Erik will tell you we were in the store all day but in my memory it was more like 3 minutes!). The Bento Box pattern is so gratifying and flexible I can see why it's so popular. Mine is the wall size which was would be great for a gift although I'm not sure I can let go of this one.

Hope your summer is going to be fun and we run into each other at Cami's or Target - haven't seen you for awhile. (the shop is open this week even though Cami's in Seattle) and don't forget Hoosier Hills Fiber Fest in Franklin on Fri & Sat.
Always, Robin
Neat quilt. I am working on one but it is slow going. I enjoy it.
