Pineapple Strip or Applique Block-anyone seen one?
#1
I was at the quilt store yesterday and a lady had a quilt she had made with 8 pineapples. The pineapples were made from Batik fabric scrap strips. (She had purchased the fabric on a trip to Hawaii.) I couldn't get close enough to see whether they were strip blocks or an applique made with strips of fabric. The pineapples were about 8-10 inches high. This was not the traditional quilt block pattern.

Take a look at www.quiltpassions.net and then go to this site.
There is a pineapple pattern (out of stock now) but may be what you are looking for. [http://barbarabieraugeldesigns.com/c...hp?category=64]

We did that as a class when I still had my own quilt shop. The pineapples are done like a french braid and then applique the pineapple and leaves on a block. It was alot of fun for the customers...they really enjoyed it.
