Churn Dash SAL

Since Wildflower Woods is a flimsy, I can make progress on other projects. So far 16 churn dash blocks have been pieced for Chooky Blue's SAL. 

I do have the HST's cut for 14 more HST's. It was very fast to cut the pieces using the GO!Me cutter. I'm going to need a total of 50 blocks.


I didn't realize how much pink and brown fabrics I had in the civil war tub until I started rummaging through it. I had planned to make my churn dash blocks in a variety of colors but I've changed my mind.

All of the HST blocks are brown fabrics and the sides are going to be pink fabrics. There will be a variety of background fabrics.

My friend Deanna gave me a bunch of civil war fabrics before she moved to Utah. I had forgotten how fabric there was.

The blocks finish at 9".

    I looove reproduction fabrics almost as much as my honey and how do you like your Go cutter you won? Are you enjoying it??? I have pondered getting a couple dies and try them in my cuttlebug cutter which is a similar size but wasn’t sure how I would like the sideways slant of the dies…. Your thoughts on this is appreciated! Kathi

    I like your blocks and how you have used two different fabrics per block .... a good way to use up smaller pieces.

    I love pink and brown together and I think these look wonderful. It's fun to see a range of pinks, from pale to nearly red/rose.
