June Block Lotto — Ice Pop

For our June block we’re making ice pops! We’re celebrating summer with these cool treats. These BIG blocks are really easy to make.

The unfinished block size is 8” x about 18 ½”—the pattern says 18 ¾” but the sample blocks made were closer to 18 ½”. The winner of these blocks will have room to make size adjustments on this block as needed.

Popsicle® is a brand name so we’re aiming to avoid trademark infringement with our terminology.

Follow Sew Yeah’s pattern to make your block(s) using the following guidelines:
— For the ice pop, use three different fabrics in colors of your choice in modern, small-scale prints or solids. Keep an eye on contrast so your sweet treat doesn’t disappear into the background!
— For the stick, use brown or tan.
— For the background, use a cheery yellow in a solid or small-scale print.

For our purposes, please make only the ice pop block with no sashing. The winner will be able to decide what kind/size of sashing to make.

As a reminder, these blocks will be turned in at the July meeting and the lotto is open only to current, paid members.
