Yes, I took a class from Sharon (fantastic teacher) earlier this year (piecelique). It's a variation on paper piecing, and I love it much more. I find it faster, more accurate, and easier to understand once I got the hang of it. No paper to pull off the back when the block is done, and you only need 2 copies of the pattern for multiple blocks: one for cutting, one for placement. Works great on curves. Also, you can flip each seam whichever side you want it before sewing the next. I used a bottle of Glue-Baste-It with a long thin metal applicator. You can see a picture at www.thatperfectstitch.com under notions tab. I expect you can find that type of bottle in a well stocked craft store. I don't see how glue stick would work well, and it would be a lot slower than washable school glue.
