I, too, struggled with PPing when I was first introduced to it. One member of my quilting group gave me and another member a lesson, but I still didn't get it right. I could do the first two pieces, but that third one really threw me! The owner of my LQS, who had done a lot of PPing years ago, offered to help me and even she had trouble with the same piece. I eventually found Carol Doak's Craftsy class, paid for it, and was finally able to get it right. I rewound that third lesson over and over and over, but it worked! Sorry pic is sideways - forgot to rotate it.
