Seriously..I think it needs stitches.: Pokemon Quilt, Block One

Hi! (hand waving) :D

It's Pokemon Friday (for the Intro post, click here) and this week we're diving in to make a block #1! You can also find the Intro post and all of the Sew Along info by clicking on the Pokemon Sew Along button over there in the left sidebar. That will take you to the Sew Along page, where I'll be adding all of the posts as we go along, so it will be in one central place.

This is the first block:

Following you'll find the cutting instructions, and diagrams.

The block assembly is divided into four sections. This block will be a 19" square (19 1/2" unfinished). If you've been planning to sew along, and ordered a FQ bundle, hopefully it's arrived and you're all ready! (If not, you can find the FQ bundle offered by Fat Quarter Shop by clicking here, and the downloadable yardage requirements by clicking here. All the details are in the Intro post.) Okay, here we go! I'm excited to get going! :D
