I love paper piecing!! And I use Brenda Henning's method, where you never cross a seam at more than one point, so you don't have little tiny pieces to pick out.

never could figure out WHY people go to the trouble w/ PP i made one of those maryland stars on quilterscache & didn't realize it was PP, & it turned out ok so now i'm thinkin' "What is PP for?" [maybe i just got lucky-who knows] accuracy is important but i think PP is going to extremes----but if it works for you---GREAT!
