Lavalava

Some of our class made small printing blocks with tropical leaf and flower designs which they printed onto fabric. It was great fun getting dressed up "Island Style" in our own hand made lavalava.

Tvaevae



Hazel discovered that tvaevae are hand stitched quilts made in the Pacific Islands.
She has designed her own tvaevae and is busy embroidering details onto the leaves and hibiscus flowers. 
We can't wait to see her finished work!
