Peckish, what a beautiful quilt. I think the colours areso pleasing to the eye. Can you tell me what the fabrics are that you used. I love it:)
I have never heard of a "thin quarter" either....

OOPS!!!! I see you used SW scraps....awespme quilt:)

I wonder if a thin quarter refers to the 9" x width of fabric, just as the fat quarter refers to the 18 x 21/22 cut. That is a beautiful pineapple quilt. Did you paper piece it or do it the hard way. Either way it is beautiful and a hugh project.

What a lovely quilt Peckish. Nice work.

Peckish - your quilt is stunning - incredible work.

Peckish - gorgeous quilt!!!

Peckish,
Wow! Your quilt is absolutely stunning. Was it paper pieced?

An absolutely gorgeous quilt, but thin quarters????

I don't have time to read all the postings, but the ones I read didn't answer your question. Yes, I do think using the same color for the center square (the one that gets cut into fourths) looks good in a D9P quilt, similar to the way the red looks in that pineapple quilt posted by Peckish at the beginning of this thread.

Peckish,
Just viewed your pineapple quilt and am so inspired. Have been wanting to make one for some time and now I know it is the time. Do you have to paper piece this pattern?
P.S. Sorry for my earlier posts. I have very thin skin. Happy New Year.
