This is the first paper piecing I had done. It is a Judy Neimeyer pattern and she has a special way to do paper piecing. Her patterns supply all the paper you need, and they are awesome. You can see all her patterns and quilts at

We've had classes for her Pepper Dish pattern for brand new quilters, and they have done fine.
Don't be afraid to try whatever you like.
And if you get stuck, just ask us for help.
