Japanese artist Keiko Goke chose this Rob Peter to Pay Paul quilt as her inspiration piece when she made a new quilt for Journey to Japan, one of the IQM's companion exhibitions to Abstract Design in American Quilts at 50. The original and her brightly colored interpretation of it both appear on the cover of the IQM catalog.
