Four years ago, I started working on this quilt again and was finally able to complete it. The number of hexagonal pieces used to complete this quilt was 30,833. All the hexagonal pieces were quilted in rocking stitch, and each side of the hexagonal paper liner is 8mm long.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePoco A Poco\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e by Keiko Morihiro \u003cstrong\u003eFirst Place - Hand Quilted Quilts\u003c\/strong\u003e (Sponsored by Arrow Sewing) at \u003cstrong\u003eAQS QuiltWeek Paducah 2024\u003c\/strong\u003e. The title of Keiko's quilt translates to \"little by little\", which is very fitting when you consider all the small individual pieces that she hand quilted together to win this award. Every single piece combines to create a hand quilted beauty of an image that can be seen from afar, but you'll have to stand back more than you would for your average quilt as this one is 86\" x 100\" in size.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuilting Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuilting Technique\u003c\/strong\u003e:English Paper Piecing,Paper Piecing, Hand Quilting, Hand Piecing\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign\u003c\/strong\u003e: Original Design\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Keiko Morihiro \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eQuilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Keiko Morihiro \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eYear Made:\u003c\/strong\u003e NA \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eOwned By:\u003c\/strong\u003e NA \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 x 80 inches \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShows \u0026amp; Museums:\u003c\/strong\u003e Houston International Quilt Festival 2025; AQS QuiltWeek - Paducah 2024 \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAwards:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Grace Company Master Award for Traditional Artistry at Houston International Quilt Festival 2025;; First Place - Hand Quilted Quilts (Sponsored by Arrow Sewing) at AQS QuiltWeek Paducah 2024 \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Keiko Morihiro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54046404182291,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0918\/4575\/5155\/files\/28371-poco-a-poco-keiko-morihiro-2-1716259397_a46e4fa5-76ff-466c-bfb7-6079a954aea0.jpg?v=1776144377","url":"https:\/\/gallery.thequiltshow.com\/products\/poco-a-poco-keiko-morihiro","provider":"The Quilt Show Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
