There is a fantastic display in Singapore. It is called Fabric of the Nation and consists of 60 panels each 2 meters wide and 4 meters high with a black 8 inch quilted border. In total there are 15,000 6 inch embroidered squares. http://www.channelnewsasia.com/fabric/background.htm http://www.mcys.gov.sg/web/Faces/Faces35/FOTN.html

This exhibition has proven so popular that rather than the several months originally scheduled, it was extended for two and half years and will run until December 2006.

The display is at the Toa Payoh Hub directly next to the Toa Payoh MRT station which is N6 on the North Line.
