Faux Quilted Pineapple Pattern

Hello friends. I needed something summerish for my new studio and thought how perfect a faux quilted pineapple pattern would be hanging on the wall. I wanted something bright and colorful. For some reason I kept coming back to this pineapple quilt square I found scrolling on Pinterest. As most of you already know I don’t quilt so what better way to recreate this pineapple pattern then to use Ann Butler Designs Faux Quilting Stamps.

Materials Used:

• Ann Butler Designs ColorBox™ Crafter’s Ink in Sunshine, Tangelo and Limelight
• Ann Butler Designs Faux Quilting Stamps from Unity Stamp Co
• Acrylic Blocks to use with the stamps
• Scissors
• Liquid Adhesive
• Die cut letters
• 12 x 12 pattern cardstock
• 12 x 12 acrylic frame

How to make the pineapple pattern:

1. Stamp 16 square and 4 triangle Faux Quilting Stamps on a piece of white cardstock using Sunshine and Tangelo inks. Set aside to dry.
2. Stamp 2 square and 4 triangle Faux Quilting Stamps on a piece of white cardstock using Limelight ink.
   
3. Once the ink is dry cut each square and triangle out.
   
4. Adhered all the pieces in a pineapple shape on a piece of cardstock that had adhesive on it.
5. Cut the excess cardstock off the pattern.
6. Arrange the letters how you want them on the 12 x 12 cardstock. In my case I used the words Aloha Kakahiaka which means Good Morning in Hawaiian.
7. Before adhering the pineapple pattern on the piece of 12 x 12 cardstock I little sponged the Tangleo and Sunshine ink over the pattern.
8. I did the same thing to the top of the pineapple with Limelight.
9. Adhere the pineapple to the 12 x 12 cardstock and place in an acrylic frame.

Now I have a cute sign that will make me think of Hawaii every time I walk in my studio.
