Hole In The Wall

Several weeks ago, Sandy Corbin was back in town.  So our regular group took her class, Hole In The Wall by Eleanor Burns.  I had a bundle of fat quarters in Asian fabrics so this is the result.  I plan to gift it to another coworker, Elaine Jow, who is originally from Taiwan.

 
I have one more quilt to finish in the next couple of weeks. Then I plan to sell my quilting machine and frame and eventually upgrade to a longarm setup.

My husband retired a couple of months ago and I have only another 6 weeks before I also retire.  Our plans are to leave the islands and return to the mainland.  And we have 16 years of "stuff" to sort through and pack, list and sell the house, and buy a different one.  There are lots of changes just around the corner.

We have made so many good friends and had so many great experiences here.  I do not look forward to leaving Hawaii.  Part of my heart will always remain in the islands.
