Thank you everyone for the links and comments! I looked at the Carol Doak page and she said that some patterns are not meant to be paper pieced... I think this is one of them. I didn't realize how many Y seams there were- which would be very difficult to paper piece as far as i can tell. I think i'm just going to do it the way the book says to. :) I'll post up a pic if I can ever get this figured out! HAHAHA... (did i mention that i've decided to make this quilt for a benefit silent auction and it needs to be done April 10th! oh and that this is only my 4th quilt!... I'm feeling slightly overwhelmed) :shock:
