OK this is my problem............i have been trying to understand this all day but it makes no sense. Please look at the pic i am attaching. This is for paper piecing te grandmothers fan. I made 3 blocks so far but the placement makes no sense.

I recommend this to practice paper piecing: http://www.quilterscache.com/StartQu...tingthree.html

It is simple and easy to understand.

Thanks Agape........i've done paper piecing before and i can do it without problems but this block is not making sense to me. When i line up the blocks side by side, the end blade on one of the blocks is straight up and down but the adjoining block is a curved blade. It dont make sense no matter what i do.

If you used that pattern, your fan should be squared off.

Mesissy, I just looked at it and it makes no sense to me, either!!
