I love Japanese woodcuts, so naturally when I see quilts made using those kind of designs I gravitate towards them - like a bee to honey and all that. :)
Quilt above made by Marie Karickhoff of Michigan; entered in the judged show (category: Art-Naturescapes) at the 2007 Houston International Quilt Festival.
This quilt with the same design source was at IQF way back about 2002. I don't know the quilter's name, but clearly it is made a bit differently than the other one. They are both lovely, though. (It's only the picture quality that is lacking in this one!)

I'm pretty sure that the 2002 IQF Great Wave off Kanagawa is titled "Homage to Hokusai" and was made by Charli Fulton. I was made aware of the existence of that quilt after I emailed a friend with a picture of my quilt Owatatsumi.
