Love the colors of Hawaiian shirts but they're not always easy to use. You came up with a good solution!

So with all this snow we've had I finished it off and machine quilted it with the serpentine stitch and finished the hand stitching on the binding this afternoon...... oh yes... one year at retreat we were supposed to make a Hawaiian theme block to donate so I made the piggy hula dancer, sadly only a few of us made blocks so I brought mine home... she finally found her forever home... the quilt is about 48 x 60" and hopefully will give a few cuddles in it's new life.[ATTACH=CONFIG]568332[/ATTACH]

OMG! I have those same squares from a trip to Hawaii with my daughter in 2002 or 2003 and I had completely forgot about them until I saw this! Guess I should get busy with them...Thanks

Bless your heart for finishing this "hulu-lulu" quilt. Love your piggy, and I must say it brings back memories and a little tear in my eye for my Dad, who just loved his wild Hawaiian shirts, even though he never got to go there.
