Pineapples- But Not in Hawaii

Between organic produce delivery clubs, salad bars, and now quilting, I've dealt with way more pineapple while living here in Illinois than I ever did while living on Oahu.

Here's my latest brush with pineapples, this time for a quilt block swap:

Ten Pineapple Blossom blocks.
These are not sewn together, they're still individual blocks, ready for swapping.
I used the instructions over at Quiltville.com to piece them together.
They were a lot of fun to do, and not difficult at all!


So, I'll be putting these into the mail early next week and then eagerly awaiting the arrival of ten DIFFERENT blocks from other people in the swap. I think while I'm waiting I'll go ahead and make two additional blocks in order to get three "full pattern rotations" and be able to make it into something. Or, who knows... maybe I'll feel like just keeping them on hand and adding to them from time to time to eventually make them all into something larger.

Your quilts are beautiful. Did I tell you that I picked up sewing, too, after Christmastime? Actually, it was a step in revitalizing my own energy while I help my oldest realize her fashion design dreams.
