Thank you for your quick response. One of the reasons I prewash is to shrink the fabric.

All those storms passed to the south of me. Hope you all weathered last nights storms safely and with no more power outages. Been busy catching up with tons of yard work after having visiting the Nevada desert. Central PA is hotter than the Nevada desert and it seems as though my air conditioning is deciding to give up the ghost. Lucky me, the sewing room isn't on the central system and has a window unit. I may be forced to quilt in spite of all the other work that's on my agenda. I did get UFO sandwiched and layered the other day. Take care everyone!

Renata - I'm glad you're safe and weren't too affected by the storms! How terrible! And I hope the neighbor's tree doesn't fall!
I'm glad you got a chance to try the rose. Those flowers really are a lot easier than they look! The funky version was one of the first FMQ designs I learned and, after I stepped back when the flower was finished and realized that it looked good with all different pedal sizes, I fell in love with them! But I've only had one project where they were appropriate so far. If the roses don't make it into this project, then they are now in your arsenal if you ever need them in the future.
I'm really excited to see how your quilt finishes up! I think the bright binding will be great.

]I finished a bunch of tops lately- including the pineapple quilt! I had strips left over so made a back with them. Everything for this quilt was from my stash, including the quilt border and the yellow fabric used for the back! It's such a wonderful quilt, like Gyleen's but different,

About a year ago I made this pineapple quilt top, and some of you might have seen it on a blog I did about it at that time. It was put aside because of other projects and I just wanted to take a breather for a while during this summer. I've enjoyed reading along with and seeing all of your marvelous quilts inspired by Gyleen's fabulous TQS episode, book, and ruler. I plan to add a black Susan Cleveland-type prairie point edge to it to balance the 2 black borders framing the cheeries. So far, I'm thinking of quilting something circular...maybe a cross-section of a pineapple slice, or little pineapples in the black areas. I'm not wild about how the 9 tiny center squares turned out in the center blocks so I bought some gorgeous Swarovski square crystal buttons in clear, medium green and black to see how they will look (gasp! lol!) in covering up those uneven tiny squares. (Remember, I love bling and glitz...and it is a kitchen Christmas wall quilt!) :wink: I would really appreciate any help from you about the quilting. I use my walking foot a lot (another gasp!) because it's been about 5 years since I did FMQ and I need to get up to speed again. Oh, and I'll probably add tiny red, green, and white Swarovski crystals on all those tiny red dots in the black fabric.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Hugs,
Shirley

Originally posted by ReetzbobeetzKathy, I love your quilt, and the backing. It's a great block to make isn't it? Will you do another?
It was a lot of fun to make. When I got to the end of the quilt and still had a pile of strips, I just started sewing them together end to end, then cut them into same-size strips, and sewed those together. I was going to make squares alternating with the yellow, but when I saw the whole bunch of them together, realized that they wanted to be sewn together into one big piece!
So I have only a piece or two of scraps left. (except for the scraps from the 2011 BOM- I have a bag of those. Not sure what I'll do with those yet)
