A message from Nalani:
Aloha, I would like to give my blessings, Aloha and Support
to Yuko "Napuanani" for not only perpetuating the art of
Hawaiian quilting but also for helping to continue my grandmother
"Aunty Debbie Kakalia's" Legacy. I am very proud of my instructors
for all of thier accomplishments in the world of Hawaiian
Quilting. Yuko and I have become very good friends over
the years and we are in constant contact talking about Hawaiian
quilting, techniques, meanings patterns, inspirations and
history. She has shown me that her love and passion for
the art of Hawaiian quilting is deep within her heart and
her desire to share this love and knowledge is pure. I am
very proud to recommend "Napuanani's Kapa Hui" to anyone
interested in learning this art. Napua has taken quilting
lessons from many of Hawaii's top quilters over the years
including my Grandmother Aunty Debbie. Many years ago it
was my Grandmother who named Napua's webshop "Hoaloha".
I always teach to my students that if you want to ever become
an instructor one day you must first learn, understand and
live with the ALOHA SPIRIT within your heart. I know that
Napua has the Aloha Spirit within her and she has always
shown it to me and her many clients. With this and my blessings
I know her classes will be filled with warmth and comfort.
I wish you the very best Napua and I am sure my grandmother
is also giving you her blessings. It takes a special person
to fully understand our Hawaiian ways and become and instructor
in my Ohana. I am very honored to have you as not only my
friend but also as one of my instructors. I would like to
say "E Komo Mai" (Welcome) to all who join us. Learn the
art , enjoy the art and mostly relax and have fun while
doing it. Aloha Pumehana "Warmest Love" A Hui Ho "Until
we meet again" Nalani Goard |
