Something new and a little different for me. This Great Big pineapple measures 18 1/2 inches x 28 inches. It would make a really nice wall hanging or table runner.

One of 12 blocks, this one is #7. It measures 15" x 15" and is made of top-quality cotton. The pieces are fused in place, then buttonhole stitched around using matching cotton thread. All the thread tails are drawn to the back and rethreaded through the existing stitching to prevent and unraveling. It would make a great pillow, wall hanging or the start of something larger. Come and visit me at zizzybob - Etsy where there are several more Vintage Valentine blocks.
There was a time when I purchased a live Christmas tree and a live wreath every year. But it's warm in Florida, and every year the needles would be falling off days before Christmas ever got here. We finally broke down and got a fake tree and wreath. I decorate the wreath with live Baby's Breath, so it looks like snow. My tree is now 2 foot tall and holds only miniature ornaments. At my age, that is the extent of my decorating.
Merry Christmas everyone.
This piece is the largest of them all, measuring 29 1/2" wide x 30" long.
The pieces have been sitting since then and I seriously doubt that I'll ever quilt it. So, one by one I will be listing the parts and hope that someone loves it as much as I once did.
