Sewing With Rita

Yesterday, my good friend and fellow quilter, Rita came over to help me with some quilting issues. I wanted to learn how to piece a "pineapple block". She came and printed the pattern on tissue paper using my printer and then taught me how to piece it.

We had a great time. We chatted and sewed and pressed and chatted while we worked. (Oh, and I threw in a little lunch to keep her working :)
These are the two blocks we completed. Aren't they beautimus?? Now only 80 or so to go and I'll have a quilt. (Maybe I can trick her into coming back!?)

Wow, those are pretty! And they look quite complicated.

Beautiful pineapples, Donna! I started one, but it lanquishes in a drawer.
