Pineapple in Purple, for REAL, this time - no more complaints, for now from Elaine Adair Pieces

 Computer is home from it's hospital stay - the Photo App had disappeared - how could that have happened?   Plus a few other issues from ME trying to fix things, making a bigger mess.   8-(    It seems that every year, I have to take it for some kind of R & R at the local computer hospital, and get "something" fixed.  Computer physicians are very kind and diplomatic and never say things like "operator error".  


Yes, another Pineapple, Scrappy, and mostly in shades of purple.  Center quilting design was a series of paisleys (I quilt on my DSM).  Just cannot resist Pineapple ...

They're MAGIC! from From the Strawberry Patch...

I received a box of new patchwork (new  to me) pins in a gift box from a friend a few weeks back. They're called "Magic Pins". I'm very particular about my pins (read: obsessed), each pin has a purpose and each type is assigned its own, designated, pin cushion-- they're NEVER to be intermingled (ask my grandchildren!

Green, Green Fields of Home ... ??? from Elaine Adair Pieces

 No green in this yard, due to heavy snow today!  But I do have fond memories of  early life on a small  farm in Illinois.  The early green alfalfa fields were a favorite, and especially,  those pink/lavendar blossoms.

Here is my latest project - another "Pineapple, Green, Green Fields of Home"- I seem to be obsessed with them.  I've used a lot of greens in the blocks -- notice there are 2 different block layouts, similar to 2 or 3 I've made previously.  All the blocks are made with different fabrics, all scrappy, with the same light, slubby muslin ...

Pineapple, "Green, Green Fields of Home" from Elaine Adair Pieces

 


This is my 5th ??? Pineapple Quilt /blocks I've made - there is just something about them I find appealing. They are perfect for scraps, of which I have many.  I absolutely love watching a DVD from Gyleen X Fitzgerald  whose design this is.  I purchased her DVD from the original Craftsy,  or was it Annies Crafts ?? AND her ruler.  There are other designs on the DVD but I'm stuck on this one, she calls it Hugs and Kisses.  Her delivery is peaceful, unstressful - a very pleasant project.  There are 2 different blocks for this version.  Note the "O" in ...

Lock-down sewing: Pineapple scraps from Grandma's Red Needle

 It's Saturday afternoon already and I haven't done half of what I intended to do today! Some days are like that and I don't think I'm alone?! I've been glued to the sewing machine almost every day this week. Some weeks ago I made a Christmas table runner and four place mats that needed to be quilted. That's done! Yesterday I added binding and have left to do two of the four place mats. But that was not what I was going to write about today. 

Isn't it amazing what can be done ...
