String Blocks - What Was I Thinking!?
I made some string blocks on a paper foundation.
That went well and good.
Then I decided to stitch about 1/8 inch all the way around each block - while the paper was still on the back.
It seemed like such a good idea to leave the paper on and keep the units stable - there were all those bias edges and floppy corners to keep in place.
Then I sewed the units together.
That paper was a challenge to remove from the seams.
Next time - I might use a very long basting stitch to keep the edges in place - or not. Maybe a touch of glue to keep the corners from flopping?
