I created this quilt as a homage to the first time I went to Hawaii. I stayed in a hotel downtown off the beaten path. It was a perfect room for one person, and the bathroom had the most beautiful small tile I’ve ever seen. It was opalescent green, yellow, blue, and just a hint of red. This blanket/quilt reminds me of that trip.
Unfortunately this quilt will also remind me of how much I do not enjoy quilting. Ugh. All the cutting, and measuring of squares and such. This project took me months to finish because it kept ending up back in my closet while I worked on more enjoyable projects.
This weekend I told myself I would finish this project, and so I did.
I didn’t use bias tape to bind the quilt instead I mitered the corners which I thought gave it a more casual feel. This blanket isn't a standard size, queen, double, or king but more so a throw size.
