Default What do I do with fruit from Japanese Quince?

I have been given a fruit from a Japanese Quince, can any of you tell me what I have to do to propagate new plants from it?
Thanks,
Sadie

Allow to ripen naturally.
When it goes squadggy, split it open, harvest the pips.
Dry them off.
Save till Spring
.... and sow normally in a pot.

As the other poster says. Just like apple pips. But, if you want one
for its flowers, you should propagate by getting a sucker. They will
not come true from pips.

The result will probably still be decorative, but will revert to some
sort of pink colour.
