“Thank you very much for all the through planning and interpretation. It was a highlight of my trip here: wonderful insight into the lives of Sawai san and his family and their evolution to create new opportunities for their skills and sensibilities. Altogether a wonderful day, thank you.”

— T.B. (Weaving Experience - Guest from San Francisco)

“I had a wonderful time on Sunday. Sawai san and his wife were delightful to spend time with and it was so exciting to spend time with experts who are also continuing to be so creative and to push the boundaries of their craft. I am now so inspired and brimming with ideas for my own weaving - which as you saw is much less advanced!!”
