Pineapple Wanna Be
#51
I have a question--you said it takes you one hour for each block--do you make one block at a time, or do you work on them assembly-line fashion? I just finished a Judy Niemeyer quilt that had a bunch of paper piecing. I found that it went waaaayyyy faster using an assembly line method of putting the blocks together. Beautiful work, by-the-way! Thanks for sharing your progress. Can't wait to see the finished quilt!!!

Love it. Scrappy is always my favorite. I am looking at so many scaps right now from my latest quilting frenzy. I usually do a kaleidoscope, simple log cabin, Pineapple.
Have you not tried the Freezer paper technique yet...it is so fast and no sewing threw the paper and using the same pattern over and over.
