I highly recommend Carol Doak classes for learning to paper piecing. After you learn how then you can explore some of the other ( techniques) like the freezer paper method, but learning the basics first helps immensely. Carol Doak is a great teacher and offers a couple classes on craftsy. She also has a very active group on her site and has free quilt projects/ patterns going all the time

i like the fold back method of paper piecing... i found it just by googling it. with this method, you don't have to tear off the paper at the end. and if doing multiples, you can reuse the same pattern a few times.

If you want to try a good "freebie" video first, the Crafty Gemini just did a paper piecing video last week. Here's the link:

This is the one of the videos in her series produced with Missouri Star.

I highly recommend getting the Add-A-Quarter ruler! When I was first learning to do PP, I thought it would be a silly waste of money since I had my trusty 6' X 1" ruler and could use it to measure that 1/4". Well, let me tell you, if you're going to do PP, that AAQ ruler makes the process soooo much easier!
