Aloha Kauai!

We had a great vacation, filled with biking, kayaking, wakeboarding, star gazing, snorkeling, horseback riding, and lots more. We came home to cooler weather, but at least the sun was shining to help us transition back to work! Here are just a few more quilts before we say Aloha to Hawaii.




This quilt below is one of my favorites, in the window of Kapaia Stitchery... another one designed by Lisa Boyer. It's what caught my eye as we were driving by! The pattern is called Post Cards from Hawaii. It's really my favorite kind of quilt- simple, fresh, and contemporary. (Lisa's pattern is available on her website: http://www.lisaboyer.com/ie1.htm )

  2. Yep it's my favourite too. Nice and simple but pretty. We have the Bird of Paradise flowers here in NZ too. They aren't flowering now though. Glad you had a lovely holiday and sorry about having to go back to work - it's hard isnt' it? I still remember those days!!
