DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!!

I promised to post this yesterday but somehow yesterday got away from me! But the RULER I chose to learn how to use was the PINEAPPLE RULER!!! I have the "Holly Jolly" fq tower and used those fabrics. 4 blocks done and 8 more to go. I think the pineapple pattern probably needs to be for a bigger quilt to get the full effect of the pattern, but I had limited fabric so 12 blocks will be as big as it gets. This ruler is easy to use though and it amazes that people can figure this stuff out!

Here are the pics I promised! One with the greens together and one with the reds.


Have a great weekend everyone!

How many rulers can a quilter have?

I think the answer to that is AS MANY RULERS AS THE QUILTER WANTS!!! Notice I didn't say as many rulers as the quilter NEEDS!!! My problem is that I have rulers that I have NO clue how to use! YIKES!!! I have the "square in a square" ruler that I have NEVER used! I have Kaye Woods' "Starmaker" rulers that I have NEVER used! I have a "Lazy Angle" ruler that I have NEVER used! I have a setting triangle ruler that I have NEVER used! I have a "Pineapple Ruler" that I have NEVER used and don't even REMEMBER buying! I thnk I need a RULER INTERVENTION! LOL

I decided to pick one of the rulers and learn how to use it today. I wanted to make 4 blocks from the ruler of choice but didn't get them all done. I am having neck/shoulder issues and had to stop.

Stay tuned tomorrow! I will post progress then!

Til then...RULERS RULE!!!!! ROFL


FESS UP...HOW MANY RULERS DO YOU HAVE THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN USED AND/OR THAT YOU FORGOT YOU EVEN HAD? HUH?
