Barbara’s Farewell Quilt

I knew exactly what I wanted, that prickly beauty of the pineapple. It was also the perfect symbol for my very hospitable friend, departing, as expats do, for her new life in Texas. I knew I wanted to do a modified log cabin, with shadings, and I knew I wanted to do tufts coming out the center of each cabin. Fresh pineapple is plentiful and delicious in Doha.
