Pineapple Log Cabin Paper Foundation Piecing Mini Quilt
I have been working with my mini for the Schnitzel & Boo quilt swap. This time I decide to try a pineapple log cabin block using paper piecing technique. Here are the process photo.
I have been pondering on what mini should I make ever since I got my partner’s detail. Not until recently, I made the decision to go with a mini pineapple log cabin block. This was totally inspired by the scrappy pineapple quilt Amanda was working on. Amanda has finished her 101 Scrappy project — and am thinking of starting mine!!!! This — maybe the first of many scrappy finishes. I am not sure how long I will take but I am currently loving making a dent through my stash with these pineapple blocks!!!! so I see a lot more fun in the future while I finish my 101 scrappy project!
The blocks are very time-consuming, but I love the finish so much!!
I prep all little pieces before sewing them in chain piece 4 at a time.

How I Chain Paper Piece
If you are interested in watching me as I sew through four of the blocks, I uploaded a video on Youtube. The quality of the video is a bit bad as I just found out I was recording in night mode! O well, lesson learnt for next time. You might be able to pick up some tips there. So, head along and watch me babbling for 18 minutes! There is a fast forward part as well, which I found to be fun to watch!
I am so happy to be sharing with you today, a king size quilt finish!
Swoon quilt is like a must-have, must make in a quilter’s life. It is Camille Roskelley’s pattern based on the traditional block, the carpenter’s wheel block.
