Hi dakotamaid. I've been using Inklingo for about 4 years and love it. I have found that making the freezer paper adhere to the front of the fabric is very important to prevent paper jams. First, be sure to wash your fabric to get all the sizing out of it and do not use softening sheets if you put it in the dryer. When ironing the fabric to the freezer paper, be SURE you have no loose threads hanging out. Use a VERY hot iron and a firm ironing surface. Iron both sides firmly. On the Inklingo site, Linda has made Chapter 1 of the Inklingo Handbook free to all. Page 27 has good instructions for the above. I have made hand pieced quilts and also machine stitched quilts. It's a really fast and accurate way to make half square triangles. I also made a hexagon quilt much easier than the English paper piecing.
