Lemon or Lime?

There are so many enticing ideas out there in the quilting world - I have a list about a mile long of things I would like to try.   A pineapple block has been on my list for a long time, and when Patty from Elm Street Quilts showed this little mini she had finished up and linked up the tutorial for it, I knew it was time to make one!

I made the larger pineapple from the tutorial, and my completed mini measures about 9.5 x 14.

Not much was needed - some yellow and green scraps and a background fabric.  It went together so quickly that I even forgot to take any in process photos!


The perfect backing for it!


Love!


Perfect to hang up in my sewing room.

that is one pineapple I am not allergic to. It is very cute and good for you for taking one off the "to do " list....in my experience it is when 2 more replace it. :)

I've had these pineapple blocks on my radar. Along with apples and strawberries. Could be a fruit salad in my future.

I just love it, I had to download it now too for that someday project! The backing is super fun too.

So cute! Pineapples have been on my list for awhile. Now that it's the RSC color of the month, I will be making some. Not sure if they will become a quilt or assorted other things, but I really don't have to make that decision now, do I?

Pineapples seem to be the rage right now, and that is the cutest pattern I've seen! Nice. :)
