Sorta Pineapple quilt -

I got a new accuquilt machine that makes 2.5 inch strips.

Ive been hearing for 2 years how great it is to work with 2.5 inch strips.

So, all day today I cut pieces for a new quilt - I got the pattern from quiltville.com  you can see the pattern for free on the website here - Im crazy in love with Bonnie Hunters quilts and scrap quilting ideas.

Here is my stack of pieces for the quilt --



And here is my test block -




Where she used white blocks Im using red ones - left overs from my last red quilt.

Ive got my whole station set up to do some SERIOUS manufacturing of quilt blocks.

Starting NOW!

It is Labor Day weekend! I love this holiday .... I'm having a sale on my Etsy to celebrate the cooler weather coming. George and I are making quilts and going to New Orleans parades this weekend.

I think I'm going to make an effort to make it clash as much as possible! Hope you all will find some fun this weekend. It's for us. The workers.
