Each season has a different choice of motifs, fabrics and colourways, from cool tie~dyed cottons to rich brocades. Cherry blossom and kites represent the springtime, paper fans, beautiful flying insects and opulent flowers the summer, while maple leaves and the harvest moon are symbols of the autumn and icy snowflakes and evergreen plants recall the chill of wintertime. The book starts with a section on fabrics and techniques, looking at selecting modern Western fabrics, manipulating a plain fabric to give it an Oriental look through traditional techniques such as stencilling, dip~dyeing and gilding as well as how to source Oriental fabrics. It also Covers basic appliqué and patchwork techniques, and includes step~by~step instructions on using motifs to embellish the basic patchworks. Next, Janet Haigh's specially designed projects are featured in four seasonal sections. Most projects begin by making up a piece of fabric from a number of basic blocks.

These can be added to the basic patchworks to create the variety of pattern that is so typical of Oriental design. Many of the techniques and patterns are well known to Western patchworkers, but Japanese Inspirations shows that through the careful choice of fabrics and colours it is Possible to create a beautiful range of contemporary pieces that combine Western and Oriental designs.
