Your quilt is very nice. FYI I have a friend who does quilting with her long arm. I saw a pineapple quilt she was quilting. Later she told me the woman had wo pineapple quilts; one for each daughter. The lady had them both appraised as she wanted her daughters to know what they are getting. One quilt was appraised at $1,100 and the other $1,400!!

Thought you'd like to know.

Since Pineapple quilts are so labor intensive, I'm sure that really adds to their value. Paper piecing is the only way I would attempt one.

Love the quilt, I have not tried paperpiecing, of course that is one of a million things I haven't tried, but I do have a list and this is now on it.

I've never done paper piecing. Looks hard, but you have mastered it.
Very nice.

That looks great. I am still afraid to try paper piecing. I need to take a class. Nice work.
