Tifaifai Workshops

    Any travel agent can issue a ticket or book a cruise . . .
    We create Travel Experiences . . . that extra effort is our hallmark!

 The quilters among us translated what they had experienced so far into beautiful tifaifais at Didi's all-day workshop in the Typee Conference Room at the InterContinental.  Didi showed them how to use flowers and other things Tahitian and convert them into wonderful designs.

Didi instructs Nancy in the fine art of the tifaifai.

Is Lucy preparing to hit Peggy over the head and steal her design?

The group named Vicki "Kiwi" because she came all the way from New Zealand to take Didi's tour!

Pearl concentrating on her Tifaifai design.

After working up an appetite,  we had lunch while exchanging stories and quilting experiences.

Lucy describes life in snowy Wisconsin , educating us about "Cuddle Duds" - an item definitely NOT needed in Tahiti!

Mary's off and running on her design!  She is using plants that she had gathered in her design.

Kiwi tells us of her life in New Zealand and her Maori heritage. 

Kathy working on her design.

Once the tifaifais were created, cut out and basted, Didi  taught a class on how to applique them.
