Pineapples Everywhere!

My favorite summer trend this year is definitely the pineapple!  They look fun and taste delicious!  When my best friend requested a pineapple table runner, how could I say no?

It took two months for me to find the perfect pattern, but I finally decided on this one by Anneliese at Eye Candy Quilts.  I wasn't worried about it fitting into a sampler quilt, so I added an extra two rows to make my pineapples be a little taller.  This was also my first time doing an eight-sided quilt - I had a take a deep breath before I cut those corners off, but it ended up working out really well.  Only one corner was a little wonky when I finished and my husband assures me it's not all that noticeable.  Now it's time to cut up the prop pineapple and eat it!
