Hawaiian quilt for a

Club EQ June 2004 Results (page 3) <<< Home <<< Albums Club EQ Album: June 2004 Challenge: Hawaiian Appliqué! Page 3 Design a block in the Hawaiian appliqué style, which means it can be cut as one piece from a square of fabric folded into a 1/8 wedge with one edge of the wedge on the bias and the other on the straight of grain. Your project file should include the single wedge as one block and the full design that wedge would make as a another block. You may create a block or a motif (a block without a block outline). Also include a quilt that uses your Hawaiian appliqué block. Your design does not have to use Hawaiian figures, only the appliqué style. -Barb Vlack Photos: 1-32 33-64 65-96 97-124 Clickon any quilt to see a larger version.

Omaha, Nebraska LaVonne M. Dunetts Nebraska Hawiian A fun, simple design. Omaha, Nebraska Linda Dawson Porcupine Star This design used straight lines only and resembles a star, but the lines are not smooth, therefore the reference to the porcupine. St Petersburg, Florida Linda Dawson Fern Frenzy The laciness of this design reminded me of ferns frons as they uncurl from the base of the plant. St Petersburg, Florida Quilt 69 Quilt 70 Quilt 71 Quilt 72 Linda MacDougall Hawaiian Rainbow Butterflies If this were machine appliqued, it would look nice done with black thread to set off the vibrant colors and tie in the black accent borders. Murrieta, CA Linda MacDougall Tequila Sunrise Butterflies The simple blocks in the corners and the borders are a nice contrast to the curves in the center. Murrieta, CA Lynn Ann Majidimehr Dragonflies I've been working on a dragonfly quiltj pattern, and decided to try to design a hawaiian style dragonfly quilt. Woodinville, WA 2004 Lynn Ann Majidimehr Iris with Hearts The iris are blooming at my house, so I thought I'd see if I could make a hawaiian style iris pattern. The hearts just seemed to fit the space between them. Woodinville, WA 2004 Quilt 73 Quilt 74 Quilt 75 Quilt 76 Linda Webb Moyer Maui Turtles Remembers me of a trip to Hawaii. Jacksonville, Arkansas Lynne Chambliss Sun Kachina This design is an adaptation of Hopi Sun Kachina dolls and dancers. The symbols used in the squares around the central design are traditional Native American symbols; not necessarily Hopi. The colors chosen stand for turquoise stone and the warmth of the sun. Tucson, AZ, USA Mary Allenspach Guardians Since I'm not into flowers, I was thinking butterflies. Then thoughts of my new grandchild made me think of angels and the design "flew" in. Layout was On-point Medallion 4. A darker, larger border will shrink the look of the center panel. Rolling Meadows IL & Winchester WI Mary Allenspach Star Crossed Angels Layout was Star - 1, fire colors make me think of playful angels. Quilt 77 Quilt 78 Quilt 79 Quilt 80 Marje Rhine Hawaiian Pansy I actually designed this Hawaiian quilt for a Nancy Chong class taught at Quilt University and I designed it using EQ. I have also made this quilt. See a picture of it at www.picturetrail.com/mgrhine under Customer Quilts Spring 2004.

Anyone who has seen my previous challenge entries knows that I am extremely fond of cats, and I try to incorporate them into most of my designs. The block in this quilt is an original design that I came up with by playing with some of the cat motifs in the EQ library. Quilt 85 Quilt 86 Quilt 87 Quilt 88 Merry Endres Hawaiian Baltimore Album The blocks in this quilt were inspired by designs in Elizabeth Root's book "Hawaiian Quilting" (Dover Needlework Series). Once I started drawing these designs, I couldn't stop! Placed as they are on this quilt, I am reminded a bit of a Baltimore Album Quilt. Miriana En Flagrente in Camouflage Each block was drawn in either patchdraw or easy draw. I have had quite a learning curve doing this. I am a total newbie at this kind of block designing. I have seen many hawaiin quilts online and found that they vary quite a bit. So, I thought I would try it this way. Monecha Painter Drawn freehand and using simple shapes in patchdraw and then cloned and rotated. Glendale, AZ Monecha Painter Drawn freehand in patchdraw and then cloned and rotated. Glendale, AZ Quilt 89 Quilt 90 Quilt 91 Quilt 92 Nancy Anderson Flameflowers I was trying to draw flames at Pentecost, but ended up with something that looked more like a flower! It was fun to do, but in the start I lost a lot of work with the program closing down on me. But now it seems ok. Nancy Anderson Bluebirds fly Hawaiian block of the bluebirds surrounded by a Scherenschnitte frame (see QNM June 04). That is two cutoutblocks!

Idaho, USA Paula Ross Hawaiian Rorschach I tried to get a feel for the ocean, with flowing, undulating curves in this block. Made up with reds and yellows it could resemble lava flows. When I was finished I realized it might resemble a Rorschach inkblot test more than the ocean! Idaho, USA Photos: 1-32 33-64 65-96 97-124

Matthew Gray - Chef, Food Critic, Expert Guide Matthew Gray and Keira Nagai of Hawaii Food Tours Photos Courtesy of Hawaii Food Tours << Previous | Next >> The concept seems pretty simple. Matthew and Keira know Oahu's best places to eat, so they can start a business to take people to handpicked restaurants. They'll charge for the service and make a nice profit. Wrong. If that were all that Matthew and Keira could offer the business would have failed in short order. Well, it's not all that they offer. First off Matthew and Keira are just plain fun to spend time with. You could spend hours just talking with them about Hawaii, food, restaurants and Matthew's amazing background. Before he was the top food critic on Oahu, he worked as a professional chef. In fact, Matthew was a personal chef to many Hollywood celebrities in the 80’s & 90’s. He launched a successful food business, Chef Matthew’s Fine Foods, and sold his products to gourmet shops and grocers all over California. Matthew's other business, Pamper & Dine, combining "massage and fine dining in your home," was profiled worldwide in People Magazine, National Enquirer, the New York Times, and CNN, NBC and CBS television networks. You get to do this with other people who are also looking to learn more about places to eat on Oahu. On the day of my Hole-in-the-Wall Tour, there was an older couple from Texas and three adult Hawaiians who had grown up in California but who return to the islands every so often to visit family. We all came from different backgrounds and different parts of the U.S., yet we all found out just how quickly people become friends over some good food.

" A n interminable language...it is one of the oldest living languages of the earth, as some conjecture, and may well be classed among the best ...the thought to displace it, or to doom it to oblivion by substituting the English language, ought not for a moment to be indulged. L ong live the grand old, sonorous, poetical Hawaiian language." ~The Rev. Lorenzo Lyons(Makua Laiana), 1878, composer of "Hawai`i Aloha" , missionary. Why Learn Hawaiian? 20 Pono Reasons T he reasons to learn and cherish the Hawaiian language are many and varied. Ultimately, the desire... or the need... comes from within. I received the call to return home , "gift-wrapped in song and chant." Keali`i Reichel was my `ânela (angel, which means "messenger") and my desire to learn Hawaiian was ignited. Whether your desire burns like a raging fire, glows softly, or just barely smolders, it is enough to get you started here. Perhaps, for you, too, the need will become apparent. What's New? W hat's new on this site will be listed here for the convenience of frequenters. Hawaiian Language Lessons T hese beginner lessons are for the curious, the "local", the visitor, the expatriate, the homesick, the Hawaiian music lover, the hula aficionado, the `ukulele player, the culturally-aware, the unaware, and the-somewhere-in-between...the casual or the serious student.

Here's a sampling: Voice of an Angel tells of a series of synchronistic events, "bread crumbs leading home," which then lead to the creation of this site. Kalapana recalls nostalgic memories of a past Hawai`i, with a hopeful glimpse to the future, with hope that by learning well from the past, a brighter future is possible. A Hawaiian Love Story , a fond retelling. Brahdahs BU & IZ , cherished memories of the forging of unique friendships during the last year of a gentle Hawaiian's life. Hawaiian Cultural Links More T hese are the cyber-places to return time and time again ... to link up with friends and "talk story", listen to Hawaiian music, brush up on cultural knowledge, look up recipes, gaze dreamily at photographs of wahi pana (celebrated, noted, or legendary places), and read Hawai`i's daily newspapers and magazines. Hawaiian Language Links I 've searched the web and book-marked these URLs. They are collected here on one page for your convenience and perusal.
