Free Scrappy Pineapple Love Quilt Block Tutorial

Hello, my quilty friends!

I have good news! Your next scrap-busting project is free! 😊

Back in 2019 I released a pattern called Pineapple Love. The original version uses solid fabrics, but one day I decided I wanted a really scrappy version, so I made one, and now I offer the scrappy block as a free tutorial! 🍍

Why I love this block

It uses up your scraps. It's such a fun way to use up leftover fabric. Every pineapple turns out a little different.

There's a heart in the middle. Pineapples are symbols of hospitality, warmth, friendship and generosity. How can you not love that!? They also remind me of when I lived in Hawaii. (Why did I ever leave!?)

One block goes a long way. Make just one for a pillow, a mini quilt or a wall hanging, or keep going and make a whole quilt. It's beginner friendly and stash friendly.

My one-block-a-week goal

I set a goal to make one scrappy pineapple block each week using scraps from my sewing room. (I missed a week once, so that week I made TWO. 😄) The funny thing is that I have no idea how big my quilt will be. I'm just going to keep making blocks until it feels finished. Maybe the extras will become pillows!

Tip: I like to chain piece my blocks into a web. It's my favorite way to keep everything organized while I sew. My Chain Pieced Patchwork tutorial walks you through it, and it's free too.
