Quilts From Around The World

Hawaiian quilts are not only made in Hawaii but around the world; in many countries, cities and even small towns. Yes, the quilts are still Hawaiian even though they're not made in Hawaii because the still encompass the symmetrical applique design that was cut in either the 1/8, 1/4 or even a 1/2 fold and most of all,  the echo quilting is reflected in the quilting lines.  Thank you to everyone who has sent in photo's of their Hawaiian quilts from around the world.  You are helping to perpetuate a beautiful textile art.
