Quilt by Judi Lynch, at Kamesei Ryokan
戸倉上山田温泉から来るまで１５分のところで小さな歴史資料館があります。蔵の街の稲荷山の中の｢蔵し館｣です。今月は１０日から３０日までは｢心のふるさと童謡キルト展｣が行う予定です。隣の松代町の町田京子さんの布絵で童話が生きてきています。
私の母親も趣味でキルトを作っています。もっと近くにいればこう言うキルトショーに連れて行きたいですね。亀清旅館の中で母親の作ったキルトを展示しております。見るたびにその愛情を思い出します。キルトはそういう魅力がありますね。
まあ、この機会で、キルトにご興味のある皆様は是非、見にお越しください。
There is a cute little history museum about 15 minutes by car from here. It's in Inariyama, a district of old, earthen-walled storehouses that had been used for raising silk worms. "Kurashikan" utilizes one of those buildings. This month, from the 10th to the 30th, Kurashikan is holding a nursery tale - themed quilt show featuring quilts by artist Kyoko Machida of neighboring Matsushiro. Her quilts really bring the fairy tales alive.
My mother also makes quilts as a hobby. If she were living closer, I would love to take her to this show. Here in Kamesei, we have several of my mother's wall hangings on display. Everytime I see one, it reminds me of her kindness. Quilts have that magical power.
Anyways, for all of you quilt fans, this is a great opportunity to come and see some beautiful quilts.
