Patricia Caldwell is back this week with new inspiration for us. This is an original design. Here's what she shared about the inspiration for this fun quilt: I got lost the other day when my GPS decided to stop working. I have always been directionally challenged and thought why not show lines and circles within a quilt that have no direction. This is how I feel when I have no idea of where I am going but I always end up where I am suppose to be while seeing places I never would have saw if I had my GPS. She used Color Wheel Shades Packs in this quilt.

She said that she always wanted to do a pineapple quilt since she started quilted long ago. She came across the Creative Grid Pineapple Trim Tool Mini and it worked great. These are 6 inch finished blocks. She used the Bliss Gradient as her background and coordinating Shades packs for the blocks.
