Default paper peicing

HI My name is JoAnn and I am new to this site. I hope I enjoy it as much as I enjoy quilting. What I would like to do and learn is paper peicing--does anyone out there have any help or ideas where I could go to learn that or does someone out there maybe could help me. Thank-you

Welcome from the Suburbs of Chicago. I learned paper piecing from one of the best ... Carol Doak! She has many books out most of which include a instructional DVD. Not sure if she has "how to " video on her web site . She does have a web site with some free printable patterns , so its worth check out just for that.
There are many methods out there , so when discussing , don't be surprised if you get a bit confused. I found it easy to learn Carol Doaks method and then taking on other methods.

Link to her web site

Hi from Florida! I just started an online class at Craftsy.com Strip Paper Piecing with Peggy Martin. It was 50% off when I purchased it and I LOVE IT! It is like taking private classes with her. You own it permanently and can play it over and over and also go directly to just the part you need. There are several different projects with very different looks it is so worth it in my opinion. Check it out and welcome to the board!

Hi JoAnn,

Welcome from Wisconsin. I too am wanting to learn paper piecing. I just checked out some Carol Doak books from the library. Plan to start the learning process this next week. Will be watching this thread to learn with you. m
