    I just started paper piecing and found these video's so useful! Paper Piecing Quilt Blocks Lesson 1 - YouTube She has four videos and I think her four videos are the best. There are a lot of YouTube videos out there on paper piecing. Leigh Day has a good one too. Watch a few different videos and figure out what works best for you. Warning...paper piecing is addictive!

    Carol Doak was the one who got me to "understand" and learn to have enough confidence to LOVE paper piecing.
