Print these pages (or download them) and then make several photocopies of the numbered, full-size (3" x 3", plus 1/4" seam allowances) arrow foundation piecing block below.

Use the photocopies to follow the instructions. Once you have made one successful paper pieced block you can take on any foundation pieced project. The first one is the hardest. Later, you can work on getting grainlines going in the right direction and all sorts of other things, but right now make this simple arrow block.
