Pokemon Fridays: Squirtle (block 6)
11:30 AM
Happy 6th Pokemon Friday!
This week, it's Squirtle..
With Christmas stuff going on, etc., I still haven't finished stitching Mew, but I didn't want to get too behind with the tutorials, so I am going ahead with Squirtle today to get back on track. I'm hoping to finish stitching Mew AND Squirtle this weekend.
Let's get cutting!
For this block, you'll need seven colors: background, black, white, two shades of blue, deep yellow and a brown shade. I'll list the colors I used from the bundle.

1 1/2" sq. (5)
1 1/2 x 2 1/2" (10)
1 1/2 x 3 1/2" (1)

3 1/2 x 6 1/2" (1)

Once all the pieces are cut, assemble the diagrams as always, stitching pieces indicated by small grey arrows first, then by numbered arrows, and using scant quarter inch seams. When finished with a section, label and set aside.

Once all of the sections are pieced, lay out your block and stitch together. Stitch sections indicated by the small grey arrows first, then assemble according to the numbered arrows.
You should have a 20 1/2" (20" finished-when sewn into quilt top) Squirtle! :D I will link to the PDF instructions after I complete my block and add a photo this weekend. (fingers crossed!)
**edit** Squirtle is done! You can link to the PDF instructions by CLICKING HERE.
Have a great weekend!
P.S. If you've just happened upon this post, or have missed any of the previous blocks,sewalong tab all of the sewalong info, including fabrics used, link to the fabric bundle and block tutorials can be found by clicking here. Thanks for sewing along and making this so much more fun than it would be if I were just sewing it alone! :) Also, you can find other free sew-alongs by hitting the sewalongs tab in the top menu bar up there!
