Default Block 2 Leah Block BOM

Finished the Dresden block flower block. In the directions she said to trace the patterns onto freezer paper, iron them on the dresdens and stitch. The stitch length was at 0 but I am having a little trouble getting some of the paper out on the feathers. Any suggestions. It was a fun block to stitch and quilt.

I've used tweezers and maybe dampening it.

Love the block and learning how to quilt it sounds great. Where do I go to get info on this project?
Thanks

I paper piece a lot. If they are little bits of paper, I always figured they wouldn't hurt to leave them in there.

Peg, I use a clean white eraser sometimes, but what works even better is the eraser end of a Frixion pen. It seems to grab those little bits the best. Sometimes they even stick to the eraser and you have to clear them off to continue. I showed someone at retreat this trick and her comment was, "Where were you when I started this? LOL" Works like a charm.
By the way, I like your block. I haven't even started and probably won't for awhile. I still have the first one to finish FMQing on, but am happy so far.
