First Contact features four little Martians pieced mostly from background fabric with colourful scraps for the details. Small pieces (eyes and teeth use 1" x 1" cuts) make this an intermediate level pattern. As a bonus, a double-sized jumbo alien block is included for a simpler, faster crib quilt option.

All blocks are combinable with other patterns in the Space Shenanigans series by Astrid Bordush.
