The Grinch.

As I have been trying to plan out the remainder of the year's blocks, I went back to some of the old messages from people looking for specific things.  One of the most sought after patterns, second only to the Game of Thrones sigils pack, is everyone's favorite Christmas sourpuss.  People apparently want the Grinch, the Grinch, THE GRINCH!

When I pulled the pattern, though, I was unhappy with it.  It was an older pattern from my early designing days and definitely needed some TLC.  The updated block is somewhat more simplified, contains more expressive embroidery options, and has a more appealing pattern layout.  This is still a complicated block and contains a number of sections (22 compared to the original 27), but that is the nature of the beast when dealing with a detailed picture with lots of angles.  In order to help make piecing a bit easier, I have sized this block at 12".

For right now, you can find the free Grinch pattern in the shop in one of two categories: Free Fandom Patterns and Holiday Freebies.  But there's more in store for the 2020 holiday season!  I am going back to redraft patterns for Max, Cindy Lou Who, and some funky Whoville trees, and the set will release in early November in time to stitch up a fun Christmas quilt like this one.  This quilt mock-up does not include the embroidery so Max in particular looks a little off, but it should give you the general idea.

I hope people are excited to see the Grinch in his rightful home and are looking forward to the release of more Whoville characters this winter.  Enjoy!
