Can you post a link to it? I can't find it. Thanks.
You can still find copies of the miniature quilts magazine on ebay

They've gone out of business though, nothing new being published.
If I remember correctly most of the blocks were between 4-6 inches. Not what we'd call mini today, but a great place to start.
Happy Piecing!

Still doing my research about paper piecing. Has anyone here tried Peggy Martin's method of paper piecing with strips?
I think that the first successful way I learn something is what I tend to stick with. That's probably why I return to some techniques I learned in jr. high home ec! I learned pp first with Carol Doak and thats where I stay. IMHO there is no reason for me to change from something that allows me to achieve perfect results.
Sorry, the Sally Collins class was only available until Oct.31st. http://www.thequiltshow.com/os/blog.php/blog_id/5082
