This is my pineapple block using Minick and Simpson fabrics.
Here it is using Bella Solids. Notice the different number of pineapple markings on it. Applique is custom-made that way. Also notice that one pineapple body is upside-down. Uh, whooops. Embrace the individuality!
Here are all the Bella Solid blocks together - so far - it's getting interesting, isn't it.
What else is going on? Well, we had our annual traffic disrupter here in Ann Arbor - the Ann Arbor Art Fair. Weather cooperated this year. That's unusual. I took this picture 1 hour before it all started last Thursday. I like to go to the Art Fair on the morning of the first day - before the real congestion starts. We were back home that afternoon all refreshed and inspired by the amazing artists. This picture is kind of a joke - it looks like the Art Fair is cozy and small - it is not. Hundreds and hundreds of booths, miles and miles to walk, and hundreds of thousands cars trying to find their way there.
In more personal news - we have 99's back in stock. If you are not familiar (and why would you be - since I made up this pre-cut myself....) it's 99 different Minick and Simpson fabrics - each 9" x 9". They are perfect for scrap quilts - EPP quilts, applique, hand piecing, you name it.
These are all the fabrics in this 99... You can find them HERE.
Laters,
