Take a close look and you will see
that we have incorporated an echo
style of stitching onto each block.
The traditional Hawaiian style of quilting
features a four or eight pointed motif cut
out of a vibrant fabric that is then hand
sewn with its raw edges tucked in and
stitches hidden. These motifs may seem
somewhat abstract at first, but they are
ultimately inspired by native Hawaiian
plants, flowers, and history. When a
traditional Hawaiian quilt is quilted,
the quilter will surround the motif with
echo stitching. While the traditional
method is very impressive, it obviously
takes tons of time to hand sew a quilt,
especially with intricate appliqués. Now
you can have the same beautiful style
of Hawaiian appliqués at the click of
a button! Skip the hours of pre-cutting
appliqué fabric and needlework by
using this in-the-hoop quilting collection
for your Hawaiian Quilt. These designs
showcase a traditional-style echo
stitching surrounding the motifs. With
each motif created using multiple
appliqués, you’ll have more options
when planning your Hawaiian Quilt.
