Tapa Quilt




I have been working on my Dad's tapa quilt top for months. I was not able to get it done for Christmas. Oh well. I did find him an aloha shirt with the same colors of the quilt. He was happy with that. I am working on the last honu (Hawaiian for turtle.) Once that is appliquéd , I really
think the borders will go on quickly. Although I will be mitering them and I have not done that before. I have good instructions though!!! Wish me luck! When I am done I will post a picture from the book this top was patterned after.
