A percentage of the sale of this book goes to the Catholic Charities Hawaii's elderly services which offers help to seniors allowing them to live independently, with dignity, in their own or family homes for as long as possible.


You will be hard pressed to find much white space in this beautiful book. The quilts and the counted cross stitch photographs are each in their own galleries. There are "explosions" of all of the quilt projects to guide you through their construction. The 34, new, quilt blocks and borders are in multicolor patterns. All components are easy to mix and match, project to project, so that you can make pillow (or easily enlarge each to make a wall hanging size project) as well as full size quilts from multiple blocks and borders.
