Tokyo Quilt & Stitch Show 2016

A celebration of all things quilted and stitched – as you might have guessed – this three-day fair takes over an entire exhibition hall at Big Sight in September, inviting craftspeople from all over the country to show off their creations. These range from embroidery works and bags to unique pieces made with the traditional kogin-sashi stitch technique. If you'd like to try making your own, attend one of the many classes and workshops going on every day.
