Description of Optimized Search: Mini Pineapple Quilting Sewing Ruler CGRJAW3MINI by Creative Grids

Create perfect 4, 5 or 6 inch finished Pineapple blocks by squaring up each round of strips as they are sewn. Since each round of strips is squared up before the next set is added, the blocks are perfectly square. The cutting requirements for the strips and center square are printed right on the tool. It comes with fully illustrated step by step instructions or scan the QR Code printed on the tool to view a video demonstration. Want to make larger pineapple blocks? The Pineapple Trim Tool (Item CGRJAW3) creates 6,8 and 10 inch finished blocks. The tool slides easily over the fabric until pressure is applied. Then, our exclusive gripper holds the fabric in place while cutting, eliminating slipping and miss-cuts!. Total Size - 6-1/2in x 6-1/2in.

Slight learning curve, but worth it.

It makes work sooooo easy. Watch the Missouri Star Quilt video for a better understanding of the instructions. Slight learning curve, but worth it.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Obsolete

Guaranteed accuracy

Now available in both sizes. I've just started quilting pineapples and am loving the Creative Grid line so much. All blocks are the same size. Therefore, small errors do not multiply. I had to make some adjustments, small ones, and the results are wonderful. In the end fewer problems.

Pros
  • Delightful
Cons
  • Safety

Great specialty ruler and great instruction video

Very cleverly designed special line. Success from the first time I used it and I love your videos. you learn so much! Great products and the people at Creative Grids go the extra mile to ensure you succeed with easily accessible videos, even if you've lost the instructions. Creative Grids is preparing something very good for its customers.

Pros
  • The tool glides easily over the fabric until pressure is applied. Our exclusive grip then holds the fabric in place as you cut, preventing slipping and sliding!
Cons
  • Very expensive

Made a Perfect 5 Inch Pineapple

pineapple block. I'm generally not a big fan of special rulers, but I made an exception here. And OMG it's so good and so easy to work with. I really needed the instructions (and apparently I threw them away in one go, but finding them on the Creative Grids website and printing a new set was easy). The instructions were easy to follow, the ruler markings made sense and were easy to see and use. And in the end it turned out to be the perfect size and perfectly square.

Pros
  • Want to make big chunks of pineapple? The Pineapple Cutter Tool (Item CGRJAW3) creates 6.8" and 10" finished blocks.
Cons
  • There are always new competitors

Tedious method

I was under the impression that this tool would make these blocks faster, in fact it took a very long time. The instructions weren't the clearest, and the proprietary video was even less clear. After working with 3 4 inch blocks it seems a bit easier and less confusing after going back to other YouTube videos few times. I can't imagine how to make an entire quilt with a mini ruler, but I love the look of the blocks. using this smaller version is best. Although it will take a lot longer next…

Pros
  • Overall size - 6-1/2" x 6-1/2"
Cons
  • Minor things
