After unpicking my first attempt at sewing up the churn dash blocks I am pleased to say that take two was successful and can now show what has been completed so far.
Putting those blocks aside for the moment it was time to carry on finishing off "sewing backwards" on paper which has now been completed and the paper removed. Such a tedious job but it does come off easily if using a very small stitch.
Back soon and in the meantime
Happy sewing all

Ooooh I love your churn dash blocks. Those dark corners give the blocks a whole new look and feel.
I love the nice fresh colours you are using for your churn dash blocks. It makes sense to start stitching for Christmas. It will be here before we know it.
Your churn dash blocks look great.
Foundation paper sewing takes a bit of getting your head around, but so much fun once you get it! It's a good time to sew for Christmas.
Really nice version of the Churn Dash!
Mini Christmas stockings? Oh, I want to see!!
T=Your Chuirn Dashes look great - those dark corner triangles give it a whole different look. xx
Wonderful Churn Dashes, love the colours you have used. Good to hear your backwards sewing is going well.
Great churndashes with the other colour in the corner.... love it.... backwards sewing is going well there...

You're churn dashes certainly have a different look laid out like that, and good luck with your backwards sewing. I like to do foundation piecing on vilene, and then I can leave it in and not remove it like you do with the papers. Perhaps I am just lazy?
I wondered about your paper sewing backwardS - now I get it
try to look out for newsprint - I bought a writing pad of it in one of thE cheap shops - much easier to remove than normal copy paper...bUt still a tedious job
Or print onto very fine vilene - not adhesive and leave it in.
(just saw Jude said the same)
Love the Churn Dash - quite a different look.
I love your churn dash blocks, and the background fabric you chose really makes them pop!
