Not quite a pair!!!

OK so this evenings task has been my pineapple blocks.......  I have really enjoyed this tutorial, and learning how to make these fun pineapple blocks.  However, try as I might I have not been able to get them to be the exact size they are meant to be - so so sorry Sam!

My first attempt is just a smidgen too big..... but I think will sew up OK.

(Ignore the bits that look orange, it's the artifical light, they are all red - just different shades)

But my second attempt turned out all weeny and small (like a second twin that didn't get as much room as the first), I kind of like it for it's cute-ness and 'not so good as the other one-ness' but I don't actually know if you will be able to use it in your quilt.  It's only 9" across.





My signature block.

Anyway..... a parcel of these will be making their way to you next week.

Thanks for an enjoyable evening

    I love them and you can bet I will use them!

    I recieved one that was quite a bit smaller and I have a plan to use it in the quilt. I am great at faking things since I make SO many mistakes when I am sewing. :)

    Oh no! They look great, though! Sam is a very talented quilter and I'm sure she can sew it up in her quilt!
