Went to all of the Islands. Only two of them did I find fabric. Hilo, and the big Hono. Had to really hunt for the shops. They are so different from ours. BUT !!! of course Walmart had some also, lol :lol:

Yes, the shops there are different, small shops they are. There is a small shop on Maui. A bit out of the way and hard to find. You have to pretty much hunt for it.
The Big Island (Hawaii) has a few. One in Kona and one in Hilo, but there's also a couple smaller ones.
On Oahu, there are (last shophop I did therein 2007) 8 quilt shops, but that doesn't include the ones that were on the list for sewing machines and such. It also didn't include Fabric Mart.
Lania or Kauai doesn't have any that I know of. Have had a couple people who visited there look but didn't find.
I know Molokai doesn't have any. Small island and they roll their sidewalks up at 5pm. :)

I absolutely love your quilt. It's wonderful!

I was lucky enough to attend the university in Hawaii one summer. There were several other ladies and myself that fell in love with the Hawaiian fabrics also. We finally rented a sewing machine, took over a dorm room, and bought fabric and stitched up some pretty neat dresses. This was way before I'd started seriously making quilts. I think I need to go back!

If you get tired of your quilt I could "possibly" give it a home here for you! :lol: Let me know!!!
