The first thing that I would
recommend that you do, is go to the Practice
Paper Piecing Page. When you feel comfy with paper
piecing, come on back and try a Weeping Willow Block! You will need to print out
one copy of each template page per block you want to make on very
lightweight paper. This block uses four different greens, so number
them as green 1, 2,3 and 4, with #1 being the outside green. In
addition to your paper piecing fabric amount, you will also need one
Green#1 1-1/2" x 10-1/2" strip, one Green#2
1-1/2" x 8-1/2" strip, one Green#3 1-1/2" x
6-1/2" strip and one Trunk 7-1/2" x 2-1/2" strip... |

After your strips are paper pieced, sew the Green 4 and trunk-ends
strips to the left and right of the trunk strip. Press seams towards
trunk. Add the Green 3 pieced strips to the left and right of that,
and then the Green 3 1-1/2" x
6-1/2" strip to the top of that entire unit...

Now sew the Green 2 pieced strips to the right and left, then the Green#2
1-1/2" x 8-1/2" strip to the top...on to Page
2!
