Great tool, great tutorial. This is even easier than paper-pieced pineapple, in 3 really useful block sizes. With this tool, I could even see myself using a black velveteen (maybe slightly wider black strips around the center block), because I could count on the trim-up process to make up for the different fabric weight of the quilter’s cotton and the velveteen. That would remind me of the different textures seen in the original crazy quilts. I like the different textures of crazy quilts, but I’m not fond of the irregular shapes. So this pineapple tool would let me have the best of both worlds. 🙏☺️💙

Do you think using the tool or using paper piecing has more wasted fabric? 💖🌞🌵😷

@@suzisaintjames maybe Michelle knows, but I was thinking of trying the tool with precut shapes like this: / \ / \. Also the tool will keep the shapes straight on grain, which is not so easy with paper piecing.
I am so excited I just ordered the ruler as well as the quilt kit. This will be a great gift for my niece the colors are bright and bold and beautiful just like her and her style. Thank you for a great demonstration.

I'm making a queen size scrappy one with my left over jelly roll strips and stash fabric. The blocks are addictive.

Hi Nancy - We're so glad you enjoy this fun pineapple block! Our blocks for this quilt are made with the Creative Grids® Pineapple Trim Tool, which comes with instructions. You may find our Free Download, available here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/free-downloads-and-video/129 useful in the construction too. Thanks so much for watching! -Michelle
I just got my kit and I LOVE that you’ve separated the fabrics into the individual blocks! It makes it so much easier to make the gradation in the colors and takes the guesswork out of it. I saw the recommendation to soak the fabric first because of color bleeding. Can the sizing/starch take the place of the soaking?

Hi! Sizing/Starch will not take the place of soaking and rinsing the fabric. -Bethany

Hi Lucille - This Pineapple Quilt Kit will come with the pattern and all fabrics for top and binding. The fabric included in this kit will not be precut. 💖 -Michelle
Did I miss? Did you use a jelly roll to make the finished quilt behind you?
@ShabbyFabrics

This is made from yardage, not a jelly roll. The pattern calls for strips 1 3/4" wide, so a jelly roll would be too wide. Hope this info helps! -Bethany

Could you use a jelly roll and cut the strips into two 1 3/4” strips? Oh wait. You could only get one strip out of each jelly roll. Never mind!
