The story behind the amazing, extremely detailed quilts rising in popularity today, with five kawaii projects to make. Understand how Japan's beloved kawaii style began centuries ago, the world's fascination with it, and its connection to the kawaii quilting phenomenon: appliqué quilts made with tiny pieces, typically tens of thousands of carefully manipulated bits of fabric in one quilt. - Meet master quilters Yoko Sekita, Aki Sakai, Reiko Kato, Akiko Yoshimizu, Megumi Mizuno, and Hiroko Akita, who share with readers their techniques, studios, and masterpieces. - Hundreds of colorful photos allow close-up appreciation of Japan's kawaii culture and, of course, the contemporary quilts that express it. - To allow readers to experiment with kawaii style, five step-by-step projects exclusive to this book are featured, designed by these master quilters. Whether you travel the world or simply release your imagination, let the Japanese kawaii quilt genre expand your appreciation of modern expressions in quilting.
