    Default Hawaiian Quilts

    Hi all you talented quilters! I found this site while surfing around today. They have beautiful Hawaiian Quilts there. My grandmother made one when I was just a little girl and I remember her doing it all by hand! I have since inherited it and treasure each and every stitch on it.

    Enjoy!!!!

    I explored the link further and found out that the actual store is in my old hometown of Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. I thought some of those quilts looked familiar. I've been to the store with my Mom! LOL! It's one of her favorite hangouts since she is a great quilter herself!

    What beautiful and colourful quilts! Great site, I bookmarked it to look further later.

    I must admit though when I first read Hawaiin Quilts I had a flashback from CJ's contest, I think Hawaiin "something" was a word to unscramble!!!!

    I thought of you when I saw this. Lisa Boyer does some pretty Hawaiian designed quilts.
