this is the catalog from the exhibit  of Kei Kawasaki and Stephen Szczepanek of Sri ..Spirit Cloth side bar….    Portland Japanese Garden.   which you can google and can order it if you like.  it's really beautiful.  if you remember, some of us talked about this a while ago.

    Thank you for posting this, Grace – it will be a pleasure to see your work jacket transform. I will be in the boro class, too, and recently got the book ‘Boro’ – lots of inspiration – do you have it, as well? And I really get your last post, too – we do what we can.

    Grace, this book is really something! It would be so wonderful to see it for real. Lots of inspiration for upcoming class. I was looking at a link on Sweetpea Path to a kantha website Meiko Mintz – I think you may like some of the images there meikomintz.com/archives/kantha.html

    yes… i saw that show and went back a few times. and i joined the garden because if they are going to show fiber shows like this i want to support it. besides the garden is so lovely no matter what time of year. grace, i didn’t recognize the photos in the book… i have that book for heavens sake! but now its packed up with all the other books… but soon! to be unpacked as we put our library back together. so…thanks!
