Pineapples are Pretty

The title was inspired, for no particular reason, except that it struck my fancy, by a poster at the Castro Theatre advertising Pretty in Pink, the 1980s movie. Molly Ringwold’s hair was precious.


I finished two more Pineapple blocks for a total of 8 now. I feel like I should have more, but I don’t. As I keep reminding myself this is an ongoing project with no deadline. I am enjoying seeing the evolution of the piece.

The blocks, all together, look pretty good.

I notice an interesting secondary pattern developing. I knew i would, but am just surprised at how much I like it.

  1. Hi Abby!
    Thanks for reading my blog. I agree that the dots make the pattern very cheerful. That is part of the reason I am using them. Everyone needs a good dose of cheerful.

  2. I thought similar…you can’t help but smile and feel happy inside when viewing the blocks! Glad you weren’t buried alive under the avalanche you posted about on the 10th too! lol

  3. Thanks for reading, Walker Lady! Fortunately, I wasn’t even home when the avalanche occurred, otherwise I would have been buried alive, I am sure ;-).

    I have a few more dot quilts inside of me as well, so this isn’t the last you have seen of the dots.
