Love those Crazy
Buggy Barn quilt books.
Certifiably Crazy...A Little Bit Crazy...Crazy Among Friends...(to name a few)
Did you know that BB has a Crazy Department?
The book recommends using a mixture of light and dark greens and golds.
I threw in a few oranges too.
One of the most important tips is to use high contrasts between lights and darks.
A fat quarter friendly pattern.
I love working with the Buggy Barn technique. Cut out the fabrics in stacks, shuffle sections, and then sew everything back together again.
Voile! A Pineapple top.
Once the students learned how to make one pineapple, they were prepared to go home and finish up the rest.
Great job ladies!
I love those pineapples, too cute!!
