Final Thoughts

Posted on February 9, 2025March 25, 2025 by Cissy

Kau ke kaha i ka uluna.
The head rests upon the pillow.
All the work is done and there is nothing more to worry about.
ʻŌlelo Noʻeau 1616

The Aloha ʻUlu quilt is finished and was mailed to the Boston Museum of Arts. It arrived safely in the hands of Jenn. It was an honor to be chosen for this project.  It truly was an amazing journey.
