Prior to 1972 only large Hawaiian Quilt patterns could be found. When you attended your first quilting class a large queen size pattern and even king size patterns was your first introduction to Hawaiian quilting. In 1972 John and Poakalani decided to design smaller patterns for the beginner quilter. Inspired from the larger quilt patterns from Poakalanis grandmother the smaller quilt patterns became very popular. Today in most quilting classes especially ours everyone starts with a cushion pattern before cutting out the larger quilt. Today, the smaller patterns not only make cushions for our living room but “Art On The Wall”. Designed by John Serrao
