There are a few books out there I will run down and get names to post later.
Check out Little Bits by Cindi Edgerton, she has a couple of mini's too.
One thing I do is use a size 14 needle and either newsprint or I really like to use Vellum paper. I too use a close stitch, mine is between 15-18 (my machine is older I think that is a 2 1/2 on newer machine.
I have EQ5 and am able to print off any of the blocks in in in any size and most in paperpiecing. It's really nice to have if you can afford it.
