Design Wall Monday 10.7.2024

I had a few girls at day guild ask if I could 'show' how to make Bonnie Hunter's Pineapple Blossom blocks. I pulled out my 'in process' blocks and finished them up as examples. I then found an eagle panel to pair the blocks with. This will be a smaller quilt as the day guild 'likes' smaller veteran's quilts. 


 This one is about 48 x 65 before quilting.



I took the dust cover off of DD, oiled her up, change the needle and thread...guess what? Long uneven stitches...yikes. I guess two weeks off was not a good thing. :(   I'll be trying to fix what ails the old girl in the morning...

Tension issues are frustrating. I hope you can quickly fix it.

I haven't thought about Pineapple Blossom for years. I made a lap quilt with that pattern years ago. Hum, I wonder where it is? I like how you used them with your panel. Great finish. Hope you can get your machine back in good working order -- soon!
