Artist's Description
Bird of paradise Hawaiian quilt design pattern - As early as 1820 native Hawaiian women learned to make quilts from missionaries. Unlike the quilts we know as "Hawaiian Quilts" today, these early quilts were pieced. Cotton fabric became more available with the westernization of Hawaii. This made it possible to create quilts with applique on solid cloth. These appliqued quilts had a single design radiating symmetrically from the center covering the whole quilt. These quilts were usually made with two solid colors, one for the background and one for the appliqued design. Today the legacy of Hawaiian quilting is still popular.
About James Temple
I've lived in Hawaii since 2002, 1200 feet above sea level, on the small rural island of Moloka'i. It is very quiet here, with only about 7,400 residents. I appreciate the quiet life after spending 35 years as a commercial illustrator, senior art director and design director for major advertising agencies and design studios in Chicago, San Francisco and Palo Alto California. I've always loved cooking. In 2002 that love led me to a degree in the Culinary Arts just before moving to Hawaii. Since then I designed and built a house, worked in local restaurants, self-published three cookbooks, and took up photography as a hobby. Now retired, I spend most of my time developing recipes and photographing them, plus researching and writing...
