    That's pretty good, however she shouldn't have removed the paper until the blocks are sewn together. The edges of the block most likely are on the bias.

    My LQS has the little irons, only 9.95, forgot what brand it is. compare that to the little clover iron at its price. lol works great for pressing blocks as you go.

    I have been paper piecing for years amd I use lightweight sew-in interfacing instead of paper. That way you don't have to rip anything out!
