Part of the Hawaiian Harps collection, this is an original appliqué block inspired by concert harps and traditional Hawaiian quilting patterns. Concert harps are generally large, with a straight pillar and pedals to change the key. This design has clean lines and a minimal border surrounding the harps. For a simpler, smaller block, work only the center harp design without the outer border and quilt in echo lines.
The pattern includes full-size eighth-fold templates for 14" and 18" blocks. Print actual size and cut on a folded square of fabric. Cutting and assembly instructions are included, but finishing instructions are not. The finished block may be used as part of a quilt, pillow, wall hanging, or any other project.
