Pineapple Corners for the Superstar with Jennie Rayment
Block of the Month • Educational, G, 01-Aug-2013
A variation on a traditional block
This is an interesting variation from Jennie on this traditional block; if you aren’t making the quilt you could still make 4 of these blocks and then piece them together to make the whole pineapple.
Made with simple strips of fabric and with Jennie’s clever idea there are no funny angles to have to master; the beauty if that you trim is all back to fit!
This is the final section of the Superstar Medallion Quilt – so just layer quilt and bind!
