| Patriotic Pineapple Blossom Bonnie K. Hunter designer of block (block pattern) |
T'was a bit toasty yesterday around these parts, and although piecing doesn't require a bunch of energy nor movement, spending some time in the cool basement (quilt layout prep area) seemed like a better idea than hanging out in the quilting loft. Therefore, Dawn's Early Light was given a halting break, and...
... percolating since 2013, the Pineapple Blossom UFO was pulled out with the absolute goal in mind to give her some borders. All of the pinwheels from the bonus HSTs had already been pieced back in 2013, so the main focus was on the white filler blocks and strips, all requiring just a lil' bit of math.
I am quite fond of this layout, having completed a similar one in my scrappy version. With the red and blue radiating from the center, however, gives it a firecrackery look; quite patriotic.
With the blueberries already picked for the day, I suppose I should head out to the red currant patch for another annual bountiful harvest.
Happy Friday.

Your pineapple blossom quilt is gorgeous!
Wow, absolutely beautiful!
LOVE this!! and right!! I can see the firecracerky vibe!!!!!
I can't think of a better person for "just a little bit o math". The borders are the perfect way to put all those bonus pinwheel block to good use. This is such a fun and easy pattern that looks so much harder than it really is!
What a gorgeous top. I love how you incorporated the bonus pinwheels into the border.
