Blue Hawaii Wall Hanging

This is my submission to the ALQS4. It is an Hawaiian appliqué done using the raw edge technique. I machine appliqued and quilted it. It is 20 in square.
The blue indigo was a bandana I found at Hobby Lobby years ago with the intention of making several of the blocks in the book “Hawaiian Quilting” by Elizabeth Root. I used the Angel’s Trumpet block for this wall hanging.
Here is a view of the center.
Here is a view of the back before I sewed on the 4 in sleeve for hanging.

Here are the posts of the quilts made and received from the first three ALQS.

1st: Laced Ribbons Quilt (went to Pennsylvania, May 2008)
2nd: Flower Basket Quilt (went to Indiana, September 2008)

    Thanks, Mary, and knowing I'll get an equally nice one makes it easier to give up.

    Thanks, Gizabeth.
