Hawaiian Quilt

Travel with the Simply Quilts' Camera Crew on a visit to the historic Mission Houses Museum in Honolulu, Hawaii. Antique quilts filled with rich stories about American missionaries and Hawaiian royalty date back to 1821. Quilt experts Laurie Woodard and Lee Wild discuss cultural lore, reversed applique, red work, and patchwork quilting dating back to the 1880s. According to quilt historians, it is believed this flag quilt was made for Mark Robinson, a minister of foreign affairs for the last monarchy family in Hawaii.
