This is the youtube tut. and both quilts are here. So easy, you don't need written instructions. It's the same cutting, just the fabric is placed differently. It's on my list to do next. I'm doing her Jacobs Ladder Remix right now.

my attempt at understanding the instructions for the disappearing pinwheel churn dash block.
DISAPPEARING PINWHEEL – CHURN DASH
FABRIC: two layer cakes. – one solid colour /one floral – contrasting colours SIZE: - 10 inch sq. - precut fabric
choose one solid and one floral -put them right sides together.
sew all the way around the outside edge 1/4 inch
cut it both directions diagonally [IMG]file:///C:\Users\MADELE~1\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\ 01\clip_image002.jpg[/IMG]
you have your four half-square triangles. - press open.
set them together as a pinwheel – then sew pinwheel together like a four patch [IMG]file:///C:\Users\MADELE~1\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\ 01\clip_image004.jpg[/IMG]
Measure your pinwheel block – (12 ¾ inches) – Draw a line down the middle
Measuring out from the Middle – cut 2 1/8 inches from middle on all four sides
Note: IF -12 inch pinwheel – cut 2 inches from centre
take the two striped squares - turn these to the outside - all four of those –
and then pieces on the right - turn them to the middle
and it makes a shoo fly block - with your pinwheel in the centre [IMG]file:///C:\Users\MADELE~1\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\ 01\clip_image006.jpg[/IMG]
sew together like a nine patch
press
