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 triangles. 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 wall hangings, table runners and other small items, as well as smaller prints.
