Last week I had the privilege of meeting Nancy Lee Chong,
co-owner of Pacific Rim Quilt Company.
Quilter's by the Sea of Portsmouth R.I. invited her to give an evening lecture and two workshops.
The evening lecture was both informative and inspirational …
This is the first quilt Nancy ever made!
It is a queen size!
Yes - you heard me ….
she was a non-quilter before beginning this beauty!
Here she is (sorry the picture is not the best)
with her Hawaiian Baltimore Album style quilt!
It was just lovely.
The next day was the "Hawaiian Appliqué" class which was fabulous!
Here is my "Plumeria"
It is a 20 inch block all positioned and pinned - ready for basting.
We learned all the tips and tricks to make a queen size!
The pattern "Rainbow over Lana'i (pineapple) (84" x84")
came home with me for the future!!!
Wouldn't it look just spectacular in a deep blue / green!!??
I have made two other Hawaiian style quilts,
| Horseshoe Crabs and Sand dollars |
| Blue Hibiscus (pattern by Pacific Rim Quilt Co.) |
but there is nothing like taking a class from a master!
Nancy Lee Chong is a master for sure!
