Bella SkillBuilder Pineapple Block

in Quilting on 01/04/17

It’s the 1st of the month and do you know what that means..? It’s time for the Bella Skill Builder Quilt Along hosted by The Fat Quarter Shop. This month is the pineapple block. You can find more details on their blog the Jolly Jabber.

These blocks tested me. They weren’t overly hard, but there were LOTS of them. They are time consuming and tested my patience.

For these blocks, I used Bella Solids in the following colors – melon, honeydew, admiral blue and white. I love the color combination and how they turned out. They kind of remind me of the CBC logo – what do you think?

There are 7 blocks – 3 small and 4 large. Phew. The best advice I can give it to set aside plenty of time to complete everything. Slow and steady wins the race.

To complete the block you will need:

  • Bella Solids in 4 colors
  • Pineapple block instructions
  • Creative Grids non slip ruler and Pineapple Trim Tool.
  • Cutting Mat
  • Olfa Rotary cutter
  • Sewing machine and iron

This was my first time using the Pineapple Trim Tool. It was easy to navigate and if you are a newbie like me you will find the block instructions to be helpful and guide you through using the tool.  I have been a fan of Creative Grids rulers for quite some time, but I am now a big fan of the Pineapple Trim Tool.

Head over to the Jolly Jabber blog to download the block and to see the complete list of bloggers taking part. They also have a FAQ page with tons of information about the Quilt Along.

Happy Sewing!

I made the most glorious little Kraft-tex journal I made the most glorious little Kraft-tex journal cover over the holidays.  Not only do I love the color of the month for December (blue turquoise), but the texture of my journal is like aged leather and looks durable and rugged. Did you know Kraft-tex is actually paper??? My cover was simple to make and is just one rectangular piece of Kraft-tex, folded over at the ends and topstitched. Thats it.❤️

What a fun class! Thank you to the participants in What a fun class! Thank you to the participants in my first zoom block printing class. It was an amazing group of people coming together with a common goal - sharing their love of print and pattern design.

My hubby snapped a few pictures during the workshop. I’m normally a “hider outer”, but thought this was a perfect opportunity to say Hi.  Even if it is looking down and away from the camera. 🤪

I will be hosting another block printing zoom workshop mid January. Come one come all. DM or email me for details.
