And I found that a 10" finished Pineapple block has a 60% loss of fabric to seams during construction. The more seams in a block, the heavier a quilt becomes.

Anyone up for a tutorial?

I am very stingy what quilt patterns or quilt books I spend my money for. I usually try and figure out a pattern for myself before buying. When I thumbed through this book I knew I had to have it. I didn't even look at the price until I swiped my card. The price of the magazine for this block pattern is a bargain. Thanks Anita! I'm looking forward to more of your block patterns.

In fact, I must love Anita Grossman Solomon because, after checking my quilting library, I see that I now have all three of her books. And, yes, I collect books like I collect fabric. Should just be more proactive in putting the two of them together in actual quilts.

OMG, you mean we are suppossed to BUY the books and patterns??? Just kidding!!
I have Ms. Solomon's 'Make it Simpler Paper Piecing' and she is a very talented lady. We have used the super size 9 patch for many charity quilts.
Love the pineapple avatar, I'll have to take a look at that book.
