Bento Box and Ohashi quilt

I have been quilting since 1981 and I have never made a quilt for myself to be used while sitting to watch TV or to read in my comfy chair. 
This quilt will fix that oversight. 
It is made with Japanese fabrics bought around the world. I started with 10 inches blocks and strips that are 1.5 inches wide. 
The quilt is 44 inches wide by 63 inches more or less.
The the light fabric in the back was my mother's. 
This September will be the 20th anniversary of her death and I miss her daily.
