Summer Block Party

Here's a Summer Block Party to check out! For the month of June, two block patterns a week will be posted. Each block is made by a different designer. The first block is called Candied Pineapple by Eye Candy Quilts and can be found HERE.

Enjoy!

Exploding Pineapples

I'm talking about a very simple method to make perfect Pineapple blocks. Karen Hellaby is the author of Sew Simple Pineapple and Pineapple Plus. This YouTube Video shows you how to make the blocks in her books.
Here's a couple of projects two quilters presented using this technique.
