Giftedhands Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Any suggestions for the pineapples? She wants a grid in the center large floral section, and feathered wreathes in the triangles on the edges (you can see them if you look really closely...)

Giftedhands Posted August 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 I did add grids in the wreaths...I cannot believe how nice it's turning out! Cynthia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 circles - that was my first thought too - oh my gosh - I'm starting to think like Myrna....it's starting to rub off - woohoo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramona-quilter Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 The best pineapples I have seen are Myrna's. One had lots of cursive "L"s dropping down thru the pineapple that was very striking. But the best one is called Connee's Pineapple on Myrna's webshots Quilt 8 album. Magical stuff. Take a look. http://community.webshots.com/album/36900893vFTLDi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judi Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 I agree - I think circles would look nice too. Please post when you finish the quilt, would like to see the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsbishwit Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 I like the circle idea as well. Simple to do but very elegant looking Joann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylkamode Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Hi Cynthia, Are you making circles of one measurement, of different sizes? You can play with sizes to make a quilt more interesting, and to prevent it from being 'stiff'. With what threads are you quilting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
