Cutting exact size pieces from strips is easier, more efficient,
and -- you will be surprised! -- more accurate than
paper piecing Pineapple blocks! We've gone Pineapple crazy,
and we think you will, too, once you try this method.
Cut strips the appropriate width. Then use the
Pineapple Ruler to cut the exact size and shape
of the graduated pieces. Use the triangle template to cut the center
and corner trianlges. Sew the pieces together and press as you go.
No paper to tear away! No squaring up after every set of
strips is sewn! Very little waste. Perfect!
Use Pineapple Ruler #8231 to
cut 1-1/4-in. finished Pineapple strips for
10-, 12-1/2- and 15-inch blocks, like those in the Pineapple
Pizazz quilt
shown below.
Marti likes this size for making blocks for bed
quilts and for using with big bright prints.
Also available: Pineapple Ruler #8130 for cutting 1-inch
finished strips. Marti likes it for wallhangings, table runners and other small
items, as well as smaller prints.
