I would like to try paper piecing but have no idea how. Can someone suggest a website or a tutorial on here that would be a good for someone with no clue.

Quilterscache has a beginner block with clear instructions

Carol Doak's site also explains it well and has free patterns.

I've watched a few on YouTube that were pretty good also.

This is the site that taught me paper piecing:

Also if you go to YouTube and search paper piecing, you'll get a few hits that may help you.

Good luck! It's a lot of fun.

love the look of paper pieced blocks if i could just find someone that liked taking the paper off the back for me lol

This is how I do it - no paper to rip off, can re-use pattern for many times.

I made a tutorial last week for dealing with triangles in paper piecing (after many, many years of getting the angle wrong and needing to re-do the seams over and over again...)

Let me know if it makes sense!
