00:00:02,907 --> 00:00:05,187
- Hi, I'm Heather Jones, I'm a modern quilter and designer,

3
00:00:05,187 --> 00:00:07,577
and I create sewing patterns and quilting patterns.

4
00:00:07,577 --> 00:00:09,724
And today I'm gonna show you how to make

5
00:00:09,724 --> 00:00:11,163
one of my favorite blocks,

6
00:00:11,163 --> 00:00:13,836
an improvisational pineapple quilt block.

7
00:00:13,836 --> 00:00:15,903
By piecing this block improvisationally,

8
00:00:15,903 --> 00:00:17,893
and not following a strict pattern,

9
00:00:17,893 --> 00:00:20,373
will give the block a more contemporary feeling.

10
00:00:20,373 --> 00:00:23,018
I'll show you how to work with random width strips of fabric

11
00:00:23,018 --> 00:00:24,135
to create a block.

12
00:00:24,135 --> 00:00:27,228
We'll start building it from the inside and work out.

13
00:00:27,228 --> 00:00:29,178
And then we'll talk about different fabric choices

14
00:00:29,178 --> 00:00:32,073
to give you different design looks in your finished block.

15
00:00:32,073 --> 00:00:33,405
I really love the design of this

16
00:00:33,405 --> 00:00:35,411
because it creates a block with a lot of movement

17
00:00:35,411 --> 00:00:37,579
that is completely unique.
