Welcome to the Vintage Christmas Sew Along!!! Today I'm sharing the New Puppy Block from Lori Holt's newest book, Vintage Christmas!
Vintage Christmas book is amazing -- all 207 of pages of it! I love how clearly Lori writes her patterns (go grab your Alphabitties). Plus she gives 2 sizes for each of the 42 blocks (6" and 12")! All the blocks are traditionally pieced too.

(2) buttons for puppy eyes
Embroidery thread for mouth and puppy name on collar
