Aloha Shirt Quilt Challenge

quilts made from aloha shirts
Can you hear the music playing from the ukulele and see the beautiful hibiscus?

Don’t you love quilting challenges?  It’s a good way to motivate you to become creative and use all your skills.  In Hawaii, many of us have old aloha shirts.  What to do with them?  Well, someone came up with a challenge of using the aloha shirts in a quilt! You needed to show a picture of the aloha shirts before you cut them up, then we revealed our finished quilts at our Christmas sew along we had. Here are two of the many contenders. 

Here’s another spectacular quilt. It’s a honu, a green sea turtle.

Love challenges?  Want to know what the next one is? Visit us at our meetings.  The first meeting is complimentary. Our next meeting is January 19, 2022 and we’re trying to actually have a “face to face” (or rather mask to mask) meeting in addition to having a zoom meeting that night.  Wish us luck in presenting a hybrid type of meeting. Email us at communications@oahumodernquiltguild.com for a zoom link.
