    This is one of my favorite paper piecing websites, the go-to site when looking for specific patterns.

      Steven,

      Have you ever thought of drafting your own paper pattern? Actually, it's fairly easy. Start with a photo or drawing of a duck that you like, in the size that you like. Place a grid over it with a size based on the amount of detail you'd like--the smaller the grid size, the more detail you will get. Using only squares and triangles, draw your pattern pieces.

      Here's a tutorial that shows a simple technique---> http://www.geocities.com/pcpiecers/draftinglesson.html

      Enjoy,
      Nancy

              Hi Gloria,

              Just FYI - Geocities is a webhosting website for folks to create websites for free. I think that Yahoo has, or soon will, discontinue Geocities.
