I tried out options for the Pineapple blocks I made. I am out of the green fabric, so no additional Flying Geese can be made from it. With the top left I have 8 leftover geese. With the top right I have 16 leftover geese. With the table runner I would have to make more geese using the remaining 3 fabrics, pink, orange and blue. I can alter the color placement to make up for the lack of more green, but would have to make a bunch more to go all the way round the runner. Or come up with an alternate design on the ends.
Or I could go with this layout and place the Flying Geese block in the center of the Pineapples.
So, which did I choose?
Number 1?
Number 2?
Or number 3?
Number 1!
Not sure if I am hand or machine quilting this. Will have to ponder that issue. The piecing is not stellar, so why waste time hand quilting? But all that blank space invites a good hand quilted design.

Dismsl showing this week. I know I’ve been knitting, evidently it’s just not been very much.
Oh I love it!! That’s the one I would have suggested:)
Great minds think alike!!!
Cute!
Thanks.
Love the colors you chose, so nice together, and you did choose the best layout. Good going!
Thanks! It sure makes me smile whenever I look at it. Now to get it finished so I can see it on the wall every day.
I am happy you chose the first option. That one was my favorite. Thanks for sharing with Oh Scrap! It turned out great 🙂
Thanks! I knew it would win, but needed to try the others to confirm.
I just love pineapple log cabin blocks. Your little project is so perfect!
Thank you. It sure does make me happy. Now to figure out the quilting.
