tradition of Hawaiian quilting and design your personal pattern. With
our help, you can do it.
66-page book: Full of pictures, illustrations and
instruction. A handy guide, at your side, as you explore and create.

book title on the spine when the book is closed and on your bookshelf.
2-hour DVD: Watch as we show you our designing
process; be inspired by the surroundings and experiences of our students
in Hawai'i as they design their quilts; visit the Bailey House Museum on
Maui, and the Grove Farm Homestead on Kaua'i, to view a portion of their
priceless Hawaiian quilt pattern collections.

Of course, we believe a video is better than a book for learning a new technique.
Watching someone do it is so much better than trying to interpret
written words and still pictures.
Consider either of our 2 videos for learning Needleturn Appliqué, and more.
