Aloha - cute little Hawaiian shirts
3 Attachment(s)
I had several prints from my Maui trip a few years ago and started this quilt before my trip a month back. I picked up some more and love the way this turned out. It is a FREE pattern from Moda http://www.modafabrics.com/fp_cfac-sunshine.pdf
I changed it a little to make a bit smaller so I could use minky on the back without piecing (it is 53 x 60). The collars are NOT flush with the quilt so you have be very careful when quilting. I quilted it with a wave pattern as I do not do free motion. |
The wave pattern goes very well with the theme of Hawaiian shirts, evocative of the water surrounding the islands. Nice mix of fabrics.
|
Those turned out so cute! Great quilting design for it.
|
That quilt turned out perfect for the Hawaiian fabrics. The minky on the back with with wave quilting really brought it all together so well. TFS
|
Sew cute and neat back and quilting!
|
This is so pretty. It will make some young man a very precious gift.
|
I absolutely love this! Piecing and quilting is fabulous. I do have a question though. Did you use any batting between the top and the Minky?
|
Adorable quilt and love the shirt fabrics you used. The quilting pattern is so perfect for your quilt. Thank you for the link to get the pattern.
|
Cute quilt and I love the wave pattern. Did you use a ruler of a stencil? I've been looking for something like this.

I bought the pattern from Anita Shackelford it is called modern curves https://www.anitashackelford.net/sho...--statler.html this one is for short arm machines. I have an HQ Avante. I wrote and asked them and they said the Short Arm version of the pattern works best for my machine.
Thank you ... I've bookmarked this website. |
Very cute little shirts!
|
Love this. I bought the pattern and kit several years ago but immediately had buyers remorse and it’s just sitting on my shelf.
|
That’s a cute way to showcase the different prints.
|
Such a cute quilt. My husband has over 20 something of those kind of shirts. Maybe I will snitch some Ha!
|
Beautiful! What a great way to use up the old Hawaii shirts.
|
Such a cute quilt! I agree about the quilting looking like waves.
|
is so cute and would make a great gift for my sons. Thanks for sharing.
|
Super cute! Great assortment of prints, and the waves quilting is fun too.
|
Cute quilt. I like the waves..very appropriate for Hawaii!
|
Very fun fabrics, and I love your quilting choice. Great quilt!
|
Your hawaiian shirt quilt is delightful. It's a great way to have souvenirs that don't gather dust on a shelf.
:cool: |
Wow this brought tears to my eyes. My husband passed away almost five years ago. I only saved his Hawaiian shirts now I know what to do with them. I have to make three for each of the kids. I am totally blown away. I have to get busy on this maybe not for Christmas maybe get them done for Fathers Day. I have too many UFO's right now. I have to get them done then this is next on my list. I have not had the heart to cut them but after seeing this it is perfect.
|
How cute. I made one many years ago and it is one of our favourites.
|
Aloha! I live in Hawaii and I’ve been looking all over for this pattern and I can’t find it anywhere. Would you be willing to share a copy of your pattern?
|
