Some one may have already answered this but No, they do not all have to be paper pieced. I think we talked about this a short while back here. I have a ruler, put out by Great American Quilt Factory (Nancy Smith/Lynda Milligan) specifically for the Pineapple Rule. I love this pattern. I have two blocks hanging on my bulletin board - some day I'll have enough to make a quilt. Why couldn't you start your center with narrower stripes and just add a 1/4" or so with each new row? Seems like that would work???
