I've decided to call this method/technique "folded paper piecing" - I think the author/creator of this calls it something else.
I have folded paper to create the block pattern (see the PDA by bearisgray), but this is the "how to sew the pieces together" illustrated very well - and where I got the "AHHHH - THAT's what was meant" moment.
Someone else mentioned/wrote about it in one of her posts, but this has pictures.
