New Block- Folk Art Tribute


The latest block is ready. It finishes at 12"x 48". I pieced my background with the seam down the center. You will need to make bias stem using the 1/2" bias tape maker. I used about 21" on each side of the pineapple. I have several photos to give you a good look. Also I have a photo of the layout. Keep in mind that the 12" blocks can be swapped around. Here is the link.



Hope you guys like it. I think it's pretty darn cute, if I say so myself. You will notice I am only showing one version. My schedule is pretty hectic, so for awhile I will only be doing one version until I get caught back up.


The next layer cake pattern is ready for quilting. Here are a couple of sneak peaks.





Happy Quilting, Dawn

    That quilt is beautiful. Can't wait to see it finished.
    Love the 'pink' fabrics at the end. One can never have too many pinks in my humble opinion!
