Pineapple Party - Scrappy Quilt

As many of you know I am in my glory when I'm playing with my scraps.  These days it takes me a fairly long time to complete anything I'm working on for myself.  This scrappy pineapple quilt is no exception and was started the beginning of 2011 if I remember correctly.  The pineapple border was an afterthought and because I'm never really in a hurry to finish my projects I love to add a little spice with pieced borders.

"Pineapple Party" has been hanging in my quilting queue for quite a while now, until last week when I decided it was time to get it on the frame and quilted.  Plus I wanted to have something for Show and Tell at our next guild meeting.

The quilting is an allover freehand funky heart design (thanks to Bethanne for the inspiration), using a lovely varigated thread by Wonderfil and Hobbs 80/20 batting.  The first photo was taken at Show and Tell on Saturday.  Yehhh! I finally had something to show.  Nothing spectacular but a lot of fun to make and maybe a tiny dent in my scrap bin.

  1. I love it! I am planning starting one next year. Trying to get a few thing finished before then. Because major scrappy quilt like this one, and ones with strings take up the whole table.
