Pokemon Fridays: Pokeball (block 8)
9:32 AM
Happy Pokemon Friday #8! :D This time I've made the Pokeball. I can't believe there are only four blocks left after this.
It uses six colors: a darker red, lighter red, gray, black, white and background.
Let's get started! I'll list the names of the colors from the Moda Bella solids bundle (which can be found by clicking here) that I'm using, and also if you're curious to match the fabric names to the color, you can view and download the color sheet by clicking here.
Time to get cutting!

Assemble the block according to the following diagram.
You should have a 20 1/2" sq. Pokeball block! (20" finished when sewn into quilt.)
I'm going to be working on my block today and hopefully have it posted on Instagram by this afternoon. I will edit it in here when it's done and provide the PDF download link to this post. It is all cut out, and partially assembled so the numbers all look correct.
Thanks for your patience!

If you're sewing along, and you instagram, don't forget to tag your photos with #pokemonfridays and #pokemonquilt and come find me @kellifanninquilts. And tag your Pokemon loving friends! ;) I'll be figuring out the sashing soon, too for those of you who want to sash some of the blocks you have done so far. When I get it figured out, I'll post it on the sew along page. If you're just happening onto these blocks, you can find them all on the Pokemon sew along page *HERE*, or by clicking the button in the right side bar, or the sewalongs tab in the top menu bar. If you'd like to see blocks from the other sew alongs (Minecraft & Harry Potter), come join the sew along group on my FB page.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend and Happy Stitching!
