Oh my youngest DGS would love to see this picture. I made a screen print of it. Because when we get out of this hospital I will have LOST this thread, lol.

Didn't Elvis make a movie called "Blue Hawaii"??
Pineapples come from Hawaii.
So this could be Elvis's Squished Blue Pineapple.

I really like it and don't see it as squished or quirky at all. Just unique and in my very favorite color, too!

Thanks all! I certainly won't be doing another, not even the right way.
We go home to visit tomorrow, I was hoping to finish a wall hanging for my mom. I have done something horrendous to my tension and haven't been able to figure it out. My stitches are really really tiny. Like really tiny. Don't think I will finish tonight.

There's all those blue pieces! Why do you say "squished"? Lots of pieces in that one.

Cathy (cacnurse1) said:Why do you say "squished"?
Because it isn't right. I had to make some things super wonky to get it square and instead of figuring out how to do it right, I just kept going. Around block 10 or so, I did figure it out. Then I didn't remember how big my strips were and I think along the way somewhere I changed the size a bit. Due to that, my blocks were too big so I had to trim them up. However, they weren't a full strip too big so many of the edges have partial strips. Many, but not all. Therefore....squished pineapples!

I didn't see that in your picture. Maybe I would if I saw the quilt up close. I think it looks fine and obviously there was a lot of work involved.
