Welcome to the board. Kind of slow tonight but usually you get lots or replies. I don't do paper piecing much but I do know the queen of paper quiltnig Carol Doak has great books. Check her onine site. Others will let you know too. See you around the board. Quilty hugs.

Look at http://www.quilterscache.com/

There are many, many blocks of all styles here as well as a practice PP page.

Also, for PP, I've found Carol Doak's site to be very easy.

http://www.caroldoak.com/free-quilt-patterns.php

Cross my Heart and Crazy Heart Patch are fairly easy.

Don't forget to use the search function here on the board for PP tutorials!

Sort of forgot what you asked, sorry I find they have good quilt books at the library. Also a lot of us buy quilt books from ER Hamilton in Vermont they are online so you can go there and after you get to the menu, select Needlecrafts, then sit back and look till your hearts content. They have very reasonal rates,($ 5.00 and less). I get the magazine cataloge and love it. You can Google the site. Edward R. Hamilton Book Seller.
