Hawaiian island is made

Hawaiian Volcanoes [ TEXT ONLY ] Hualalai Haleakala Lo`ihi Hawaiian Volcanoes The Hawaiian Islands are at the southeastern end of a chain of volcanoes that began to form more than 70 million years ago. Many of these volcanoes formed islands that have subsided and eroded beneath sea level, and some of the old volcanoes probably never reached sea level. Each Hawaiian island is made of one or more volcanoes, which first erupted on the sea floor and only emerged above the ocean's surface after countless eruptions. The largest and most southeastern island of the chain, Hawai`i, consists of five volcanoes. Kilauea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai have erupted in the past 200 years. Lo`ihi, the youngest volcano of the Hawaiian Volcanic Chain, is still about 1,000 meters beneath the ocean's surface. East Maui Volcano, commonly known as Haleakala, on the island of Maui, is the only other Hawaiian volcano to have erupted since the late 1700's. Origin of the Hawaiian Island Volcanic Chain An overview of "hot spots" and thermal plumes in the Earth's mantle is provided in this online USGS booklet about Plate Tectonics. Map of the southeastern or "windward" Hawaiian Islands. The islands owe their existence to a "hot spot" in the Earth's mantle that has changed location only slightly over the past 70 million years. This hot spot is located beneath the southeastern part of Hawai`i. Countless eruptions of lava fed by the hot spot built volcanoes that eventually grew above sea level to form islands. But the volcanoes didn't continue to erupt, because the seafloor on which they were built was continually moving northwestward across the hot spot at a rate of 7-9 cm per year. Eventually each volcano was torn away from the hot spot and carried northwestward, just as a conveyor belt moves material from one location to another. Such is the fate for the active volcanoes on the Big Island, though they will be replaced by new volcanoes, of which Lo`ihi is the first born. Hawai`i | Lo`ihi | Kilauea | Mauna Loa | Hualalai | Mauna Kea | Kohala | Maui | West Maui Volcano | East Maui Volcano (Haleakala) | Kaho`olawe Lana`i Moloka`i | West Moloka`i Volcano | East Moloka`i Volcano | O`ahu | Koolau Volcano | Waianae Volcano | Kaua`i Ni`ihau Map of the Hawaiian Islands, a chain of volcanoes that stretches about 2,700 km in a northwesterly direction from the Island of Hawai`i. The age of the volcanoes that form the islands increases progressively from Hawai`i, where the volcanoes are still active, to the northwest end, where the volcanoes are about 30 million years old. The chain of volcanoes continues as seamounts for another 3,000 km; the chain bends sharply to the northward about 700 km beyond this map and becomes the Emperor Seamounts.

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
