Love your quilts brought back memories. We were stationed there for almost 6 yrs in the 1960's (hubby was on a ship and gone for 6 months +) each year. I was not into quilting at that time but did make my mumu's which had to wear to work on Fridays (Aloha Fridays) and made our square dance out fits also. Just love the bright materials from over there. Thanks for sharing your wonderful quiltingt.

I realy like the bold prints and colors. I probably haven't made as many quilts with Hawaiian fabric as I would like because most of my quilts are made for some one else and they have other prefferences. Since it is so distinct I would love to see other quilts and projects made with it. Thanks, Anna
Any suggestions?

I have a friend that lives on Oahu. I've been to visit several times and love the Hawaiian fabrics and quilts. I've been to this store and loved it! http://www.hawaiifabricmart.com/

I do. I have a tub of fabrics that I'd like to make into a quilt. I bought several hawaiian shirts for $1/ each and want to find a few more while in the states this year. So, I love this thread! Thanks for asking!

Slowly gathering a collection of Hawaiian Shirts myself for quilting! Can't wait to make that imaginary quilt (designing in my head) It will be bright and vibrant!
Might need to give in and start buying fabrics for it. On the other hand, I have at least 3 projects on the go (1 must be done for April 13th) and 4 others that are already calling me....
Sew little time and sew much to sew
