Just watched interview with Karen at Just get it done quilts. Great interview. This is my first time watching and am enjoying your instruction. I have done 4 pillows for my bed. I am getting better with each one even the Echo quilting. I am left handed so watching you makes it much better. Wish I has seen these earlier. Now ready to do another one. Thanks

Thank you so much for this wonderful video! I've seen pieces like this and I was always so impressed but at the same time couldn't imagine how hard it must be to make one. Now I know that sure, it needs time, practice and effort, but it's not impossible to learn and the result is so beautiful! I want to try this technique soon, now that I know more about it. Thank you for your help, explanations and encouragement ❤️

Mahalo! I'm so glad I found your videos! I had the honor of meeting your mother years ago. I was a new quilter at the time, and stood watching her quilt in awe! I have always wanted to do Hawaiian quilting but never have. And now I will. Thank you for your awesome videos. Elaine

Thank you for a great tutorial. You really made it so easy for me to understand doing all the points and curves without cutting into the fabric. Which by the way makes a mess and ugly stitching.

Kia ora e hoa, thank you for this tutorial, your instructions are so clear!

I ended watching you and looking forward to watching more of your videos

I have much more appreciation for hawaiian quilts

Have you ever considered teaching zoom/live classes? You would reach a lot more people globally! Loved both these instruction videos! Am in the midst of quilting a patchwork bedcover but can’t wait to try this one next! I loved your interview with Karen and I have to say in Indian traditional sewing/embroidery and appliqué the story is hugely important. Especially because women traditionally make their own dowry clothes and bed clothes etc. Sewing their stories helps preserve them for future generations as well as serves as a reminder of their own history. Looking forward to more video tutorials! 💖 Big hugs and namaste!

Beautiful meticulous work. I’m going to try it on a small piece and see how I go.

OH MY GOODNESS... I'm so excited and feel confident about Needle Turn Applique. Your teaching style is great and so easy to follow. Bravo! I was taught as a very young girl by my grandmother (I'm now 73 yrs old) and it is all coming back to me!! Can hardly wait to get started on a project. Mahalo, God Bless

Mahalo again ms. Cissy. The great thing about your KZread is that I can keep playing, rewind, play again until I get it! Love it and thank you for sharing!

💕💕💕 You are such a fantastic teacher. Your voice is so soothing. I learned needle turn applique many years ago and I fell in love with Hawaiian quilts. But I haven't done any quilting in years. Thank you so much for this video!!

❤ Thank you for your video I am going to try this technique. I have done two Hawaiian blocks so far but with a domestic sewing machine and the appliqué stitch that is very visible. I also love that you take your time in teaching us this beautiful art.

I visited my daughter in Hawaii about 17 years ago and learned from you how to do this! Still today, I use your books, which are great, and enjoy what you taught me! Thank you for your patience and sharing your knowledge and history with us! 12:05

Thank you. I was wondering about the term 1/8th pattern. You are a great instructor.

Thank you for taking your precious time and teaching. us this wonderful art of quilting ....... Mahalo

Thank you for your very clear tutorial!

Mahalo! The best demonstration I've yet seen. Have been interested in this technique for a while, as it is different from how I learned. Love that the top stitching line isn't marked. Gorgeous quilt in the background.

Mahalo nui for the instructions. This is my first time quilting Hawaiian appliqué, I’m trying to finish my mother in law’s quilt since she passed years ago and was handed down to my daughter, so I’m trying to help her with it. Aloha Pumehana!

I LOVE Hawaiian quilting! My biggest regret when I left Hawaii was not finding you sooner. Fortunately I was able to trace a pattern which I learned about from the Wainae library collection. I hope to return and attend your classes (when resumed) in Honolulu!! Keep the videos coming!!! MAHALO!❤❤❤

Loved your videos. My grandmother quilted a Hawaiian quilt for me. You have inspired me to learn Hawaiian quilting.

Sissy, I have made about half a dozen wall hangings, pillows, etc. I have taken just as many Hawaiian classes. I have never been very comfortable with my points & valleys. I have watched your video three times now and I pick something up every time. Your instructions on points has helped me become very comfortable with them now. Thank you!!! Please keep making your videos. Your voice & demeanor are very calming. Aloha!

Beautiful work! Thank you. I went to Hawaii years ago. I met a woman who had been commissioned by the governor to make a quilt that hung in the governors mansion. I got a kit from her. I just absolutely cherish it. I don’t remember the woman’s name though. thank you again for your teaching ability. ❤

Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing and such clear directions!

Thank you for such a clear explanation and demonstration of doing needle turn appliqué! I am doing a baby quilt for my first grandchild. It is my first quilt and has some flowers to appliqué. This is the first video I have found that shows needle turn appliqué. I wish I had watched it first. I wouldn’t have needed the freezer paper and heat n bond I bought because I watched other appliqué quilting videos. Now I am inspired to try making a Hawaiian quilt!

Mahalo Auntie for the videos!

Thanks a lot mam! From Tahiti!❤

I love this Amazing. The more I watch you do your stitches and listen to your stories I want to make 2 of these to give to my kids. I have done hand applique before but the stitches are different than yours. You are such a great teacher and I can hear your passion in your voice. I found you and searched for this after watching Just Get It Done Quilts interviw/ Will be sharing this with my best friend.We like to sew together.

Hello!!! Thank you so much for teaching us about Hawaiian Quilting and Needle Turn Applique - you are a great teacher who presents very clear verbal instructions and great quality video instructions. Thank you again!

Mahalo, Auntie! Thanks to your wonderful instructions, I have been able to do needle turn appliqué for the first time. I have been a hand quilter for almost 20 years and this technique has eluded me. I just visited your beautiful home for the first time and am so fortunate to have found your videos on line. I am using your tulip pattern so will have lots of peaks and valleys to practice on. Just like Hawai’i!

Also watched Karen's interview with you. Have made a 5 inch square. Put it away, then brought it back out this past winter. Finally finished! Always have loved Hawaiian quilts. Now inspired to do more. Thank you! Aloha! Marion

Excellent demonstration. Needle turn appliqué is the best way to make beautiful appliqué. I tried all the other “ modern techniques” using heat bonding, freezer wrap etc etc. needle turn wins, hands down. Thank you for keeping this skill alive.

Thank you for all your help. Getting old and want to leave my kids with quilts. Hawaiian quits seem the easiest.

VERY BEAUTIFUL I LOVE THIS THANK YOU 4 SHARING

Thank you so very much. I just started my applique with your laua'e pattern. I live in Connecticut right now so I can't come home for lessons for Hawaiian quilting. I was so surprised to see this tonight and am so so happy. Mahalo nui loa.

I didn't know to start with the ulu and so I just picked the laua'e. The ulu in book one looks different from the one you have, and a bit more challenging. :-) I'm so excited to be getting started. LOL and you're right that I think my first stitches are junk.

I have done some applique over the years and it's one of my favorite techniques. I haven't tried a Hawaiian design as of yet, but you make it look and sound easy. I look forward to more of your videos. Your enthusiasm is contagious!

Love this! Thank You! ❤️🤗🙏🌹😘

This is a great video! I learned so much! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for your amazing tutorial. I have been looking for the past 5 yrs and finally found you. Being born and raised in ewa Beach I was hoping to bring something to learn now that I'm older and want to pass down to my grand babies. Much aloha!!!!

Thank you. I just love your videos. I am hooked on Hawaiian quilting. I wish I would have known about this when I visited there 10 years ago. Aloha

Thank you for sharing

Thank you for demonstrating,my goal is to make myself a Hawaiian quilt

That's amazing!! I have heard of needle turned applique but have never seen it before. You are a great teacher!

Thank you!! I have a goal to make a Hawaiian appliqué quilt. Thank you for these wonderful Instructions

I bought a quilt kit 5 years ago when we were in Hawaii. Now I'm really geeked to actually try it. Heading up to my sewing room to look for the kit. Thanks.

Cissy thank you for the calm and restful way you teach and how easy you make it. So many great tips, very educational. I learned so much! You are a superb teacher & I can't thank you enough. Aloha.

Wow! This is so awesome. I just about cried at how beautiful this is.

Love your very encouraging tutorial!! Will definitely give it a try : ) 💕

I have a book with some patterns and I can't wait to start.. Want to practice on paper first as something pretty might come out of it. Looks so enjoyable. You are a good teacher with passion for your craft. 🌺

Cissy actually has another video posted previous to this one where she showed how to cut out the pattern and how to baste it onto the backing. You might find that helpful to start with 😊

Thank you for this wonderful video! You are a very good teacher and make it look very easy. I am going to Maui next month and hope to visit some quilt shops while there and will buy fabric there for this project and probably a full quilt as well. I love that this is all handwork and that I will actually be able to start it while visiting your awesome state. It is a dream come true for me.

You live so fareway from me but I found your quilts ❤❤❤ very good lesson.thank You!

Love this. I want to see more of your teachings. Do you have a blog or website

Mahalo plenty! And soooo glad you are left handed as I am and nice lesson!! Been sewing for plenty years and first time I will applique by hand.

thank you, Cissy

Thank you for showing how to end it first time out of several videos thank you again

Aloha & Mahalo! I love your videos & am so appreciative of you taking your time to teach! I enjoy Hawaiian quilting so much.

Aloha! I just bought a pillow kit on a trip to Maui. I’ve never done needle turn appliqué ……your video has calmed my nerves and I’m ready to start! Thank you!

Well this video is the best demonstration of how to do appliqué I have ever seen! Thank you so much for showing us how to stitch the peaks which blew my mind; the valleys and the detailed instructions for circles. I can’t thank you enough for this video. Very much looking forward to your other videos.

Thank you so much for your tutorial … You’re such a good teacher ! Thanks to you I’ve just started a cushion …

These videos are wonderful! I am new to quilting and have been trying out different styles. Appliqué looked daunting, but your way of teaching made the process so simple. And I love that you share some of the history of Hawaiian quilting along with your family’s quilting history. You are a fantastic teacher and storyteller. Thank you!

Just attempting, great video!

Fantastic video! Very clear and easy to learn. I am excited for your future videos.

I haven't tried it yet but definitely will. Thank you so much for these clear instructions!

Beautiful, thank you.

Aloha Great video already watched a couple of times as I try and get points right😀 I’m having trouble with turning under the backing fabric puckers but getting there thanks again

thank you, beautiful needle work

Thank you for sharing your talent with others. I enjoyed learning from you and especially feeling your kind spirit.

So lovely! Thank you.

Great video and instructions. Thank you

Wonderful directions thank you.

Thank you so much for these instructions. This truly was so helpful.

Absolutely love your videos.

Excellent, easy to follow !

You are a great teacher. Thank you for this.🌸

Beautiful! So glad you're a lefty!

Very helpful!

Beautiful

Love this!

You are such a gentle soul; I loved everything about this video. I want to make a very small mola...maybe an easy design....!

Lovely video. I have seen these quilts for many decades (I traveled to Hawaii first in 1985) such beauty, skill and meaning. You are an excellent teacher. Simple explanations, the video clearly shows your instructions and your encouragement is wonderful!

This video is amazing! Thank you for such clear instructions. I am going to try!!

So nice to see you again, I just found these videos....wonderful

So good, Mahalo 🌸

Thank you for this!! I am working on my first ever Hawaiian quilt square 🥰

Wonderful video! ❤ tfs you art.

Mahalo! Wonderful demonstration. I appreciate your teaching style.

I've just started doing applique and this was very helpful. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing your talent with us. It's beautiful . From North Carolina.

Thank you so much! I love your videos and watching your pretty hands making lovely quilts.

Great video! 💕

Amazing. You make it looks so easy. Now for me to get my courage up to try this. Thank you so much. My dream is to go to Hawaii one day.

I'm a new subscriber, and have been interested in learning this technique for a long time. I'm so glad I found you. I am anxious to get started. Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you for the wonderful instructions! Basting really does make it easy to turn in the right place. I completed a 16 in. Ulu and I'm eager to move on to a hibiscus.

This is the first of your videos that I've found. Wonderful instructions from a very charming teacher!!! 💕 I do have one question -- what size thread do you use? I can barely see it in the finished stitches, unlike my all-purpose thread, which really looks thick and distracting! (My preferred needle is a size 9 embroidery needle for hand piecing, and that's what I've used in trying to do a small amount of appliqué in the past, but my thread looks atrocious!) Thank you so much for your generosity of spirit in sharing your techniques -- I've really got to try this now! 💐🦋🍍

❤❤❤

Mahalo I enjoyed this so very, very much. I would love to see how to lay out a bed size top.

I will be posting more video's and hopefully I'll get to the larger quilt top soon.

Aloha, I am new to this but have always wanted a Hawaiian quilt. I am having trouble with a wave pattern. Do I make small snips in the tight curl then turn under?

Do you (or any other viewers) have any recommendations for appliquing light fabrics on dark backgrounds so that the background fabric doesn't show through?

Very nice presentation; however, a bit too much hand sewing for me.

Hello, Is there any chance you will do a video showing a large quilt on best technique to do those with a border? Thank you Carla
