Grand Applique: Hawaiian Quilts June 6, 2010

'Grand Applique: Hawaiian Quilts' is a selection of pieces by master contemporary quiltmaker Carol Kamaile of Honolulu. Quilting was introduced to Hawaii in 1820 by missionaries and was originally of patchwork designs. Hawaiian women soon created their own applique style, and Carol Kamaile is a master of this highly prized Hawaiian quilting technique.
