    Love anything Hawaiian. A few months ago I played with a simple motif & went on to the second one only biger. Need to say Thank You to all of you for that is where I have gotten my inspiration to get with it. Have been sewing all my life & now am incorparating quilting. The attached photos are hand appliqued & hand quilted.

    I lived in Hawai'i for nearly 3 years in the mid-80s and was in awe of how the local ladies would gather and do the massive applique quilts! OMG I had never seen anything like it before, it was a great time had by all.

    Love yours, not matter how large or small, Hawaiian designs are awesome!
