www.quiltworx.com
We've had classes for her Pepper Dish pattern for brand new quilters, and they have done fine.
Don't be afraid to try whatever you like.
And if you get stuck, just ask us for help.

I like this quilt so much!! Even the colors are my favorites. What is the name of the pattern, please? I looked at the website, but didn't see this particular one. Would you please send the info by pm? I would appreciate it so much.

My first paper piece project was the Houses BOM here on the QB and I have become somewhat addicted since...LOL. Here is what I used to learn...It is a you tube video done by Connecting Threads and it was VERY helpful to me. I watched several others but for me, this was the most helpful. I literally had my laptop right by my sewing machine the first couple of times. The two most important things to remember "wrong side to wrong side" and being careful to double check before you cut. Here is the video and GOOD LUCK!! :D :D

I have been paper piecing for all of six months and thought I was doing okay but still had problems. When I saw this video it all clicked and as long as you remember to use the ruler before you cut (ask how I know), this is the best bar none, tutorial out there!!! It really helps line up the fabric for the next pieces. I now love paper piecing while as before I just did it to get the result I wanted. Thank you so much for this link.
