For whatever reason, I have difficulty with paper piecing. Can you suggest a good resource (wish they had a paper peicing for dummies book out)?

There are several tutes here in the tutorial section. Carol Doak has several good books too :D:D:D

One of the best resources for learning paper piecing is the DVD by Carol Doak. I also like the booklet by her..."Show Me How to Paper Piece". It has step by step instructions and large photos. Includes the foundations to make the heart blocks shown on the cover.

here is the link to Carol Doaks Store. The DVD is the 6th item down, and it is wonderful.

Maybe if you tell us more of what you are having problems with we can help you :lol: I struggled forever with it and with LOTS of help from the board I finally got it :thumbup:

This Tute worked wonders for me

Any of Carol Doak's books will teach you how to PP. I taught myself with the help of her books. :-D

Do not think about it - just do it - it is easy to overthink pp

I am also new to paper piecing. Carol Doaks DVD put me on the right track. I am practicing before I start a "real project". Don't give up, the rythum finally kicks in!
