Hawaiian quilting festival this

Stitches in Time One of the goals of the Hawaiian quilting festival this weekend is to perpetuate the cultural art form By Catherine Kekoa Enomoto Star-Bulletin IT'S a quilting bee to beat the band. This weekend's inaugural Hawaiian Quilt Festival at Blaisdell Center offers a patchwork of activities. Displays, exhibits, demonstrations, lectures, workshops, a marketplace and hands-on practice cover each step in the quilting process - pattern tracing, cutting, laying out, pinning, basting, hemming or appliqueing, and quilting. "We'll have old quilt patterns and dressmaker's tracing paper for purchase at $2 for a two-yard sheet," said Augusta-Helen "Aunty Gussie" Bento, president of the Hawaiian Quilt Research Project and co-chair of the three-day festival. "It's enough to trace one large quilt design and a couple of small designs. The patterns themselves stretch out to 40 or 48 inches." Bento said different quilt patterns will be available Saturday and Sunday, plus pencils for general use. "Then, people will be able to quilt on a horse that's there for community quilting," she said. Oahu and neighbor island quilters will lead workshops, such as stencils, Hawaiian tropical placemats, Hawaiian quilt pillow, miniature Hawaiian quilt, and designing a Hawaiian quilt. Cost will range from $26.50 to $75. Co-chair Elaine Zinn said festival goals are three-fold - "to help the public understand what the Hawaiian Quilt Research Project is about, to perpetuate the art of Hawaiian quilting so that it continues to grow, and to let people know how to take care of their quilts, because our environment and insects are so threatening to textiles." The 16-year Research Project has documented and registered more than 900 quilts and 700 quilt patterns on all islands. People will be able to sign up at the festival for future registries. "The project is important to preserve the history of Hawaiian quilts," said Zinn, who produced the 13-part public television "Hawaiian Quilting" series, "and to preserve the actual quilts that are still with us, so they will last a few more generations. They are very precious." "It was the greatest show of friendship to share one's quilt patterns," said Elizabeth Akana, who can conjure a genteel picture of tutu (grandmothers) with flowers in their hair, gathered on a porch to share snitches of gossip and stitches of colorful threads. "The quilts are enlightening us about our history and bringing about a love of history, because when you're dealing with a quilt you've got to have love in your heart," Akana said. Meanwhile, people can take their own paper and pencil, and trace quilt patterns at Waianae Library, which has a prodigious collection of 400 patterns, with more patterns yet available at Kailua Library and Brigham Young University-Hawaii collections. Akana said of Hawaii's unique quilting process and product: "We're looking at love in fabric and thread."

Molokai does have to
Molokai, Hawaii - The Friendly Islands HAWAII MOLOKAI The Friendly Islands Withapproximately 50% of its population having native Hawaiian ancestry this island is themost traditional of the islands that are accessible to tourists. Untouched by high risedevelopments there are no traffic lights, shopping complexes or fast food chains. However, whatMolokai does have to offer is 260 miles of natural beauty framed by a necklace of ancientfish ponds along the southern shore. It has the world's highest sea cliffs rising anawesome 3,000 feet above the coastline, Hawaii's longest waterfall and also its largestwhite sand beach three miles long. Lacking modern entertainment venue, Molokai boastsnumerous cultural and family events and the locals guard their laid-back lifestyle withpride. In the heart ofthe island is Kaunakakai, a one street town lined with small family-run businesses whichhave changed little since the 1920s and resembles the set of an old Western movie. Earlierthis century, pineapples were shipped in their millions to Honolulu canneries from here. ProbablyMolokai's best known visitor attraction is Kalaupapa, site of the ministry of Belgiummissionary Father Damien De Veuster. Now a National Park, this five square mile peninsulawas once a place of exile for sufferers of leprosy. Separated from the rest of the islandby huge cliffs, it is reached by mounting a mule for the three mile ride down the 1,600foot cliff trail, or alternatively by one of the world's shortest flights (five minutes)departing from Molokai's main airport. It is also possible to hike the trail, but a permitis required. Other offeringsinclude sailing or kayaking around the coastline, deep sea fishing, playing golf, or ifyou are feeling active, hiking the Kamakou Preserve, a tropical rainforest - home to rarebirds and plants, insects, and land snails. Allow a full dayfor a round trip drive along the southern shore to Halawa Valley, where along the way youwill see quaint Churches, beautiful beaches and the largest concentration of ancient fishponds, some dating back to the 13th century. Ancient Hawaiianhistory says that the hula was created by the goddess Laka on the mountain range nearMaunaloa and today the major annual event on Molokai is the celebration of the birth ofthe hula. It is held on the third Saturday of May each year and features performances ofancient hula, traditional Hawaiian crafts and lectures and tours to significant historicalsites. Unspoiled andunhurried, Molokai is the perfect destination for families, those interested in culturaland eco-tourism, and those simply wanting to relax without feeling guilty.

For such a small area--38 miles long and 10 miles wide--this island has many unique features. It has the longest white-sand beach in Hawaii at Papohaku Beach. It has the world's highest sea cliffs at 2,600 feet on the North Shore. It has Hawaii's only barrier reef that protects the east and south sides of the island. These are only the most obvious highlights. Molokai has only one main road, no traffic lights, a top speed limit of 45, and no building taller than a palm tree! On the west end, the Kaluakoi Resort at Kepuhi Beach offers several complexes of condos and villas on the shore, as well as, a golf course set among the palms. On the southern part of the east end are the Wavecrest Resort and Molokai Shores, both of which have Maui oceanfront condos. Contact the Molokai Chamber of Commerce, the Molokai Visitors Association, or Maui real estate agents for more information about Molokai real estate. Beach Communities with Condos On the island of Maui itself, several beach communities have more of a mix of people from all walks of life than do the resorts at Kapalua, Kaanapali, Wailea, and Makena. These communities house the locals who live and work on West and South Maui. The lodging and accommodations are also an eclectic mix of older homes and newer condo developments. The Napili/Kahana/Honokowai area is a more affordable stretch offering Maui oceanfront condos between the very expensive and exclusive properties at Kapalua and Kaanapali. Lahaina, south of Kaanapali, was once the capital of Hawaii and a whaling center. It still is lively, and has a typical beach town's colorful nightlife. Kihei, on South Maui, is also a bustling, eclectic town that has more affordable lodging, as well as, Maui oceanfront condos.
