Jenny Doan demonstrates the Creative Grids Pineapple Tool Ruler
Jenny's demo of this ruler is today's video from MSQC. (A few of us were discussing this particular ruler/template a few weeks ago, and I posted about my experience using it.)
She does an excellent demo and explanation of how to use the ruler.
I also just received a copy of the book written by the inventor of the ruler, Jean Ann Wright. It's called Pineapple Play Quilts and Projects. I really like the book and can't wait to do another project using this ruler!

Yes, I watched the tute also and for someone who wants to do that pattern, it looks a sure thing in accuracy. I looked up the price of the template too. I have too many others before I would try this one though.

I also watched the video and was very impressed, and preferred the scrappy quilt she did than the one from bright charm packs. I was placing an order anyway for Kona Snow so I added in the pineapple ruler. With winter approaching, it will be my winter scrap project. Looking forward to making it and quilting it myself on my new long arm.

I have this ruler and have made several blocks for a guild demo. The ruler makes it easier as I have made this pattern before without a special ruler. In fact I have both sizes of the ruler. The mini is great for scraps. The little waste is not something I fret over. I also like the Positively Pineapple book and ruler. It was my first pineapple block other then paper piecing which was too tedious for me for this pattern. I like to try all the different ways to make a block. One way may have me saying never again and then another way will have me saying this is easy and fun.

Artistic, what is the name of the F&P video? I have looked and looked and cannot find it. Thanks
