I love needle turn applique Hawaiian blocks. If you are interested there is a great website for patterns and supplies. It ispacific rim quilt company at
www.prqc.com. jam currently making a centerblock of turtles surrounded by dolphins. The other blocks will all be Hawaiian. I am having fun with mine and I do them when watching Tv and don't want to be in my sewing room. The 41" vented has taken me about a week and I am about half. Done and I find it very relaxing.
