Shy Guy and a 'Shroom

I'm on a roll now with my Super Mario blocks and have these two guys to prove it. Funny thing, I never knew this character's name until this QAL. It's Shy Guy and I don't know why I never heard it mentioned before.

And then we have the red mushroom.

Today I'll begin sewing the star and that will leave the green mushroom and the koopa shell block for the front. Linking up with

  1. Your Mario blocks look so great!! I wish I would have heard about that QAL back when it started. I have two old blocks I made years ago - Mario and the 1 UP shroom. Not really sure what to do with them though!

    1. It's not too late to join in! Each block only takes about 3 hours to sew. I think you could catch up in no time, or do at your own pace.

  2. I love the shroom block! My sister is a huge mario fan and I keep thinking I need to make one of these for her, every time I see someone's new work from this QAL I get really excited, but I really don't want to start anything new just now! How big is the block?

    1. I bet your sister would really love it if you made her one. I think the blocks were supposed to finish at 18.5 inches, but mine seem to be 19. I freely admit to not being able to sew a proper 1/4in seam...

    1. Thank you! The little squares did seem daunting at first, but they go so quickly.
