Review of "Japanese Quilt Blocks to Mix and Match" by Susan Briscoe

Quilt-making has a long history in America, but an even longer one in Asia. This book tells the history of quilt-making in Japan, and teaches us how to work in this style with over 125 different designs. As we have come to expect from Kodansha, the illustrations of the designs alone are worth the price of the book. Adding the splendid advice of author Susan Briscoe, a professional textile designer, is icing on the cake.
