I agree! Since he knows so much, ask him to show you how to do it.

Your niece will love it. It's so bright and happy!

Oh this quilt looks great! I have a friend who calls her quilting designs...Organic. I love how your quilting lines look.

I love this quilt - great use of yellow scraps! I love the name too. When I quilted my NEVER AGAIN quilt (yes that is what I officially named it - it was a California king size geisha girl quilt made out of home decor fabrics that my sister wanted quilted in argyle diamonds that I too referred to as drunk diamonds-after the first row now of the rest were truly diamonds anymore. lol) so I got a chuckle out of the title of this quilt. It’s perfect by the way! It will be loved! It’s gorgeous.

Pineapples are a symbol of warmth and friendship. I love this quilt, and I'm not just saying that. It's calm, soothing, peaceful, and relaxing to look at, and I love that it is so simple in color. I happen to like imperfect things, because it reminds me to remember that we are all flawed. Pineapples are imperfect, nature is imperfect, life is imperfect.

And, I don't think you should name it Drunk Pineapple. I think you should call it Sweet Surprise or something positive.
When you give it to her and when she uses it, it should be a reminder of you, not of the unfortunate comment your husband made. Feel good about the giving.

And further to his comment, that's another reason why I never remarried, lol.

My husband would never say anything to make me feel bad. He tells me the truth but without any let down on my part. One time I tried a new recipe. I was excited about it as it got rave reviews in the newspaper. After we ate and he did eat what he had on his plate, I asked him how he liked it. He said well it will be okay with me if you never want to cook it again. I agreed. LOL If he had said how bad it was and I wasted my time I would have felt disheartened.

As I work my way thru scraps this one would be good. Nice work😊

It’s lovely, I didn’t notice until you pointed it out. You should keep having a little tipple if you can make it look that nice 😆

This is an adorable pineapple quilt! Perfect for all those who want to hang on the beach drinking pina coladas! I think your quilting adds to the pineapple theme as the surfaces of pineapples are very irregular. I have an ear worm going now.... if you like pina coladas.....
