Description
Hawaiian applique design quilt, with mustard yellow design on cream background. A balanced design with what is probably a unique border added to a well-known center design. The quilt design, usually called KOHALA BEAUTY, refers to an area on the Big Island of Hawaii. The pattern collections written in the article "Communities of Quilters" for AQSG (American Quilt study Group) both have copies of this pattern. The border design was created to balance the larger size (100+ inches). HQRP (Hawaiian Quilt Registry Project) has registered about 80 quilts that are 100 inches or more in at least one dimension. The quilter went from a blind or slip stitch to an overcast stitch to navigate the apex of the curves. Overall excellent condition with only one very minor spot to underside. 8' 7" Height x 8' 5" Width. Mid 20th century. Provenance - Descended from consignor's grandmother, Hawaiian native. Research courtesy of Laurie Woodard and Merikay Waldvogel.
