Marylene in Belgium
Right after the earthquake and tsunami struck the east of Japan on Mar 11th, we got many emails from friends living outside of Japan.
We met most of them through the quilt.
Then one of them, Marylene who is an owner of a quilt shop called "Atelier Patchwork et Point de Croix" in Belgium and we decided to take action. That's how this project, "Patch for Japan (Anata to Watashi no Quilt)" started.
We announced it on our blog on Mar 17th and the very next day, she sent a photo of blocks that they already made! ( here is a detail )
Since then she has received, this is incredible, 6500 blocks from all over the world.
Such as Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain, Italy, Israel, USA, Canada, Dominican Republic, Greece and so on.

On June 26th, the last Sunday of the 2nd semester, they got together to assemble blocks to make a top in the afternoon.
First they separated blocks to groups of colors.

Marylene is in the middle, wearing a white T-shirt.

In the evening, their families came there for BBQ party afterwords. Sounds fun!

Look at a top which consists of 20x20=400 squares (2x2m)!

She told me that some of ladies brought blocks to piece at home.

Ken Watanabe and his wife
I've heard from Yoko the day before yesterday to tell that the 2nd quilt of "Anata to Watashi no Quilt (Patch for Japan)" was finished by a group of quilters living in Onagawa.

The quilt consists of 12x18=216 blocks, which means 216 people's hearts were pieced together!
There is a card that I wrote for them next to it.
![]()
Mr and Mrs. Watanabe happened to be in Onagawa then look at the quilt!
I guess most of you have heard of Ken Watanabe who is a worldly well known Japanese actor.

Visitor from Inner Mongolia
We had a visitor who was born in Inner Mongolia this afternoon. She is Ms.Syu who now stays in Tokyo as an exchanging language student.
Before coming to Tokyo, she was a student of Beijing university so that she lived with her aunt in Beijing.
Her aunt and mother like the quilt so she stopped by CRIB QUILT today as she is supposed to return to Beijing next month.
Thank you for coming!
