Saturday 10 April 2021: Online Workshop (Colourful Pineapples!)

Lucy Engels - Saturday 10 April 2021 - 4.00pm to 7.00pm (BST)

Online Interactive Workshop: Colourful Pineapples!

The hugely talented Lucy Engels joins us once again! Hot off the back of her excellent Modern Appliqué Techniques workshop at the end of March, this time Lucy has another hugely engaging project, one which helps explode the myth that FPP is absolutely essential for creating pineapple blocks - find out how Lucy does it via her wonderful Colourful Pineapples workshop!

Introduction by Lucy:-

Pineapple Blocks are one of those quilting blocks that people feel they need to work up to and that they need to be Foundation Paper Pieced. Well, you don’t and they don’t!!!

Pineapple blocks are intense yes, but have so much potential for colour play and placement that you will wonder why you waited so long to make one! They have to be one of the most satisfying quilt blocks to make. I really hope you'll join me for this three-hour class and see for yourselves!...

What You Will Learn in this Online Interactive Workshop:-

This is a machine-sewing class. Using a controlled improv approach we will be constructing pineapple blocks WITHOUT using paper piecing! You will learn not only how to construct this block but how colour placement within the block can change the overall appearance. During the class you will be encouraged to experiment, play with colour and learn how to take a more relaxed approach to constructing the traditional Pineapple block.
