The Two-Color Pineapple: A Classic Set Anew


This is the easiest Pineapple Quilt ever to complete. Patches for conventionally sewn, not foundation pieced, blocks are constructed using streamlined methods. This is an easy lesson to prepare for because you need choose only  two different fabrics, one-half yard of each.  
You’ll be astonished to rotary cut 64 trapezoids and triangles to shape, enough for 2 blocks, in only 14 strokes without measuring or wasting any fabric. Place a photocopy of Anita's CuttingLines pattern on top of the fabric and... cut on the lines. It's that simple and inexpensive.

Working with only 2 fabrics, there will be time for relaxed piecing and honing your machine skills. The “points” needn't match in this unique setting. After one day you'll understand how to make   two-color and scrappy blocks and the three different settings.  After 2 days an effortless two-color 70” square heirloom quilt will be well underway.  Sewing machine and rotary cutting experience required.
The Quilt Show Episode #905. Ordinary Pineapple blocks,
not paper pieced, will form Anita's unique Two-Color Pineapple Quilt
