I agree with you to some extent. I would make an oval around the stems of the pineapple and another larger around the pineapple, then with the pineapple only atitch in the ditch of each strip then make a large grid diagonally with stitch in the ditch for seams. Love your pineapples.

Since pineapple have a natural grid to them, I would probably grid the pineapples, echo once or twice around them and then since it makes me think of a tropical breeze ... draw kind of flowy curly cues in the background.
