Editorial Reviews

Review

The authors share their secrets for creating perfect pineapple quilts in this new book. You will learn foundation piecing and be able to sew perfectly accurate blocks. Cutting charts are provided for 10 different pineapple blocks in a variety of sizes. Instructions for creating two quilts are also featured. ― Quilter's Digest

I must admit that pineapple quilts, while visually appealing, have never really turned my head much. This book has changed all that. There are several quilts in this book that are stunning and some that are very innovative variations of the traditional pineapple design. These quilts are foundation-pieced to help stabilize the pineapple block. The book not only offers various pineapple designs, but offers the reader the information they need to create their own design. Even if you are not a "pineapple" person, do me a favour and take a peek through this book to see the glorious possibilities. You'll understand what I am referring to and maybe get hooked just like I am! ― The Canadian Quilter Magazine

Jane Hall and Dixie Haywood share their secrets on making amazing quilts featuring the Pineapple Log Cabin block. The award-winning pair have been using this block for decades and reveal how you can foundation piece accurately, play with colours and layouts and even create your own pineapple designs at home. ― Down Under Quilts Magazine

New Ideas for Lovers of Pinapple Quilts

Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2013

Verified Purchase

Jane Hall and Dixie Haywood have written a number of books on foundation piecing, two of them being about pineapple quilts. Pineapple quilts are very labor intensive but very much worth the time and trouble it takes to make them. You can check out pineapple quilt images on Pinterest to see some of the design possibilities of this very traditional quilt pattern. Quiltmakers like Freddy Moran and Gyleen Fitzgerald produce very beautiful contemporary pineapple quilts that can inspire you in making your own creation.

This book by Jane Hall and Dixie Haywood contains all of the information needed to produce and use the foundation patterns to produce accurately pieced blocks, how to manipulate the pattern to produce new designs (using off center blocks, different size logs, changing colors, etc.); how to assemble the blocks and best quilting choices. They have included some updating on the pineapple block design that I have not seen anywhere else that will offer new ideas for those interested in designing these works. The books that they have previously published are very thorough, laying the groundwork for producing quality quilts that will last a long time, and this books is no different. You can also take a class in foundation piecing from Jane Hall at the Academy of Quilting, an online quilting school that is replacing Quilt University. I took her class and highly recommend it as well as this book. You will learn a lot and will find that foundation piecing will improve your quilts enormously. Highly recommended for serious lovers of pineapple quilts.
