Taiwan is Rising....
This week I have been preparing to travel to the Taiwan Quilt Festival next week. I have made a special Chinese-themed quilt just for this event, where I will be a featured artist and speaker next weekend.
This weekend is the quilt festival in Yokohama Japan, which is currently the largest quilt show in that country. If you are on social media you might see photos being posted from that event. We all miss the Tokyo Quilt Festival (I attended the very last one in January 2020) but there is a lot of energy in Asia now, between Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China. I'll be flying home on Thanksgiving Eve, and will share more photos and stories at that time.
I used to travel to Taiwan in the late 1980s when I was in the fashion industry. I would go for a month at a time, developing a collection while working with the sample department in a factory. So I am anxious to return to Taipei after all these years.
There were so many quilts from Taiwanese quilters, at the Houston Quilt Festival last month! Clearly there is something going on there, and I am going to go find out ...what is the story?! I am sure
my friend Danny Amazonas has something to do with this.
Also I am looking forward to having authentic Chinese food on this trip. I have always wondered about Americans who are desperately looking for burgers and pizza when traveling in Asia. There is just nothing like having authentic cuisine made from scratch with local fresh ingredients. As a vegetarian, I am absolutely in heaven when traveling anywhere in Asia. When my son Mason and I traveled to China in 2003 to adopt Sophie Quinn, we would both just scratch our heads when the other families would go out of their way to find fake "American" food. The best vegetarian food when traveling in Asia, is at a Buddhist restaurant. Yum, I am salivating just thinking about it. You can follow me on my personal Facebook page for daily updates during this trip!
Sharing your love for fabric,
Luana and Paul
