Here we had a real treat...........................

One of the teachers was there and agreed to show us her beautiful quilts............................

Carol Kamaile with her quilt.........................

Traditional Hawaiian Quilts sewn by HAND!!!!!!!!!!.....................

I'm so impressed. .......This is wonderful

Did you notice all the tiny rows of stitching around the design???... WOW...

This is one of Carols that was displayed there.

Carol had her Hawaiian quilt patterns available at a very reasonable price.

I bought 2 pillow patterns--Anthuriums and Monstera. She has a wonderful selection, but not being that good at hand sewing, I thought it best to start with a smaller project.

There were many women at the shop and they were just setting up for a class. What fun-

I will definitely stop in again next vacation. In fact, I would like to take a class with Carol. That's something I will try to line up ahead of time, so I know the dates and times of the classes.

I guess this is a good thing to consider when going on vacation--- look up local quilt shops and see if any classes are available. How much fun would that be???????

.................................................................................................................................................................... Here is an example of what I was talking about in the last post.

Make a large print quilt, as I did with the Hawaiian Bamboo one, but add a different twist to it.

Do you have another idea? Love to hear from you!!!

Happy quilting!

Hawaiian Quilt is Finished!!!

Before I get to the next quilt shop I visited while on vacation, I wanted to show you my finished quilt.
The front..........................

The back...............................
It was so easy to make...............and fun............... My kind of quilt. I especially like the way the design shows off the beautiful large scale print.


While working on it I was coming up with ideas for another quilt using the same idea.

After the front and back are finished, lay them right side up, on top of each other, on the cutting table. Then cut at a slight angle, across the width of the quilt, somewhere in the middle, and sew the two opposite pieces together.

I will try to come up with an example in CorelDraw to show you what I mean.

Another Hawaiian Quilt Shop in next post!!!!!
