#14 – Kitty Shark – OPA Sampler SAL 2023

Description

#14 – Kitty Shark – OPA Sampler SAL 2023 – is a PDF Pattern

Block number fourteen of our OPA Sampler SAL 2023 is ‘Kitty Shark’.
The centre of Kitty Shark is a ‘Puss in the Corner’ variation surrounded by a shark tooth border.
Interestingly, I found a similar block sans teeth in Yvonne Khim’s dictionary called ‘Fair and Square’ yet Malone and BB don’t agree?
Therefore we have ourselves a brand new block which I have named ‘Kitty Shark’ for very obvious reasons.

You can choose to piece your #14 Kitty Shark block by hand or machine.
I hand pieced my block reusing what I was able to from the original block, adding in some really good matches of vintage fabric.
You may have noticed that I swapped out the boring beige for green which adds more contrast to the piecing.

This pattern contains:

• Full size Foundation Paper Piecing pattern pages should you prefer to use FPP to piece your block
• Templates ready to trace for hand piecing
• Use the paper templates to rotary cut your shapes or use the easy math alternative as provided.

You are most welcome to join our companion facebook page where we can all share our progress, tips and tricks.
I will also show closeups of our maker’s fabrics and include photos of my own vintage restoration choices.

Important:

To ensure accurate sizing of your blocks you first need to save that file onto your computer.
Open that file using Adobe Reader and turn off scaling: ie select ‘Print at 100%’ or ‘Actual Size’.
PLEASE READ: How to Download & Print a Digital PDF Quilt Pattern BEFORE printing off your pattern.
Once you have printed your pattern be sure to measure the one inch grid which found at the bottom left hand side of the page.
Remember, printing directly from a link usually alters the formatting and size of your pattern!

I’ve also added a 6″ grid PDF so that you can check your printer scaling which will show up any printer anomalies before you start.
