Joan R's Pineapple Applique Quilt

I finished up a quilt the other day for Joan R, my special customer.  As I have mentioned before, I don't do many customer quilts now, but I have kept her as she is special.  She has limited vision and lives nearby so it's easy for me to pick up/drop off and she does such wonderful quilts.  And she's such a nice lady - how can I refuse???  This is her latest.  I did a day by day "how I quilted it" on my No Rules Quilting Facebook Page so if you are interested in that, try to track it down there.  It's probably not a good idea to do it there because FB stuff gets lost so quickly.  That's why I usually do it here, then post it there.  I'll have to go back to doing that for next time.  However, here are the final pix.  I snapped them out on the front lawn in the sun.

Big Pineapple and Small Black/White/Red

These are the last two quilts I promised for before Christmas.  The rest will have to wait until January as I have personal things to get through!  

First up is this Pineapple quilt by Janice.  Janice is a scrappy quilter and makes amazing things from small bits of fabric.  This quilt is so busy that I didn't think it would be worth the time or money to do  custom quilting on it.  Instead, we opted for an all over - loops and flowers.  It works just fine.

And (below) I've figured out how to attach binding using my long-arm machine and Janice told me she doesn't like doing the binding.  So I attached hers to save that step.  All she'll have to do is trim and stitch it down on the back side.

And finally, Audrey's little black/white/red quilt.  It is quite small and turned out very well, if I do say so myself.  She liked it, too!
