Do you glue the thin paper to each small piece, leave it and sew all the pieces to the strip sections. I've made a mess. Will try again today but would appreciate a real SIMPLE first and second step. Thanks~Grandma doesn't get it!
That's because it's more complicated than it seems. Amma has done a wonderful tute on paper piecing, and I urge you to follow it. I have a hard time explaining..I get to about the third thing to do and can't explain.

I'll try to find the tute and get you a link. Set it up right next to where you sew so that you can watch it at the same time.
