It can be a little tricky to master (not that I'm a master!) but before looking as special techniques (i.e. freezer paper method) get the basic method down first. Carol Doak is a great place to start. However, be careful...it's addicting!
Good luck!

I learned paper piecing through reading blogs and free youtube videos, plus advice from experienced paper piecers on Quiltingboard. Oh, should add AND... trial and lots of errors. Some even had to go in the garbage. I love paper piecing!

There are a lot of different ways to paper piece. The best is the basic way taught by Carol Doak. You will have the basics learned and that will help you explore the other ways. I have tried about every new paper piecing technique there is but always come back to the basic.

I use the Twiddletails freezer paper method for "no tearing off paper" method, but I just tried to bring it up on their site and cannot find it! I have a copy but don't think I can give it to you! Can anyone else find it?
OK! I found it! http://www.twiddletails.com/images/FPFtute/FPFTute.pdf

I'm a carol Doak fan...before watching her DVD I hated pp! Now, altho it's not my favorite thing to, I now at least can do it correctly. I only do it if I really like the pattern enough to "think backwards" and pp( my opinion). Actually working on one now...hadn't done one since last year, so I really had to dust off the brain cells...but after the first one..all ok
