Seashell for June Quilt Block Mania

By the sea, by the sea, Oh how happy we'll be!

Welcome to QuiltFabrication with another block of the month for Quilt Block Mania! For the month of June, Under the Sea is the theme, with this stunning coral picture as our color palette inspiration.

I do so love those blues and aquas! Throw the coral and orange-red in there and together, these colors will make for a vibrant quilt - check out all of the other Under the Sea themed blocks 

and visit all of the so-very-talented designers to collect them!

My Seashell block is simple fusible applique on an hour glass block, which really brings a nice added dimension to the seashell. 

The block features easy piecing and applique requiring a few fat quarters for the background and scraps for the shell. All templates, a placement guide, and detailed instructions are included - suitable for the confident beginner quilter.

The Seashell block has an unfinished size of 12.5" x 12.5", becoming 12" square when sewn into a quilt top. The block pattern is free and available via the download button below.
