I am beyond excited to be here today with our exclusive interview with Naomi Ito, Japanese artist and textile designer. Beloved in Japan and internationally amongst both art fans and textile lovers alike, Naomi brings uniqueness to the sewing world in the form of textile paintings. She has been creating nani IRO, her textile label for Kokka , since and each collection is stunning reflection of Naomi as an artist. I recently had the pleasure of meeting Naomi and listen to her speak about her collection and she was incredibly warm, bright, and inspiring. Began showing her work in in Osaka, Tokyo and Paris. Her works have been used in TV and print advertising, picture books, and on book covers, and her prints and other artworks shown around Japan and internationally. Naomi Ito Nani means beautiful in the Hawaiian language. Iro is the Japanese word for color, and from its kanji character, harmony, balance, and a meeting of light and dark.

I'm joining you here today with some Winter sewing, even though …. The quilts, textiles, handkerchiefs, paintings that have framed my life and quietly pass on the love and skill of the great- and great-great-grandmothers I never met. Anyway, the selvedge is now safely preserved and through pure luck its placement has resulted in one of the selvedge pandas acquiring a speech bubble. Anyway, while thinking about all these things I sewed a dress. Time flies. For the sake of brevity, they are: 1. These were all Christmas presents for people.
