    I just seriously fell in love with that quilt nanabird! I love the pineapple block anyway, but your rendition is one of the prettiest I've ever seen. :)

    Love the quilt. It is beautiful!! I, too, am addicted to paper piecing. I had trouble at first but once I learned how to put that first piece on I was all set. I'm working on a wall hanging now. Will post a pic when it's done.

    Ya know, I was thinking about using that pattern for a quiltingpattern. I just didn't know it was called pinapple.

    Brilliant execution.

    thanks for the kind words. the size is 36 x 42.
    paper piecing is kind of addictive. it really allows you to make a perfect block. every point sharp and every seam precise. all you have to be able to do is sew on a line on paper. then of course you have to remove the paper :(
    also shorten your stitch length. makes it easier to remove the paper.
