Ok so a bit late but...

We are a bit late on getting this to the friend for her birthday but ....well things happen....so here we go...I love this one! I am making a bunch so if you are interested in some let me know...I think they will make great gifts for friend or even as a goodie bag ...no need to fill them! I just know that she will enjoy this....I didn't get the fabric names for this yet but I will add them in if I can remember where I put them!

pillow talk

I made these pillows for Ashleigh's room....The fabric with the cherries was our inspiration for her room I wanted to make it bright and a bit more grown up....I think it works! I pleated the ruffle and used clear buttons to tuft it!

More Pillows....

I am a really big fan of turtles.... I don't know why.... so this was a must to make! "Honu"....and I said I didn't take the lessons but I do love the ukulele pattern and so does Hailey!

Hawaiian quilting

The last time I was in Hawaii I was taught how to Hawaiian Quilt by a group of ladies. It was one of the many things they were offering at the hotel. My girls got hula lessons, we learned how to make a traditional lei, learned to proper way to cut a pineapple to ensure the sweetness and I think we should have taken the ukulele lessons but sadly we skipped that one!! I sat with these ladies for a couple of hours and they were so great to teach me...I was the only on in the class and they all had the "best" way to do it! It was the first time I ever used applique and I fell in love.....I had to buy a wack of patterns and off I went! This is my fave....I made these into pillows for Hailey...I got the fabric I used for the pineapples in Hawaii...Yes I did go to a fabric store when I was there. Don't judge me!!!
