Help! Not just anybody!

Calling all Cupcake Crochet readers! I know that there aren't many of you out there, but if you're reading this, perhaps you can help me.

You see, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I've been trying to get into tapestry crochet, and I've found one or two tutorials for it. However, I'm a bit stuck on how to do it in a turned piece. And it doesn't really help that I've found it difficult to follow the directions in the view videos that I found.

So, dearest readers, have you any help to offer? A tutorial, a video, even a book that you found helpful? Did a friend of a friend's mom's cousin mention a trick he or she found helpful?

If so, I'd love to know! Tapestry crochet has thus far befuddled me, and I'd be grateful for any help at all.

I'm also interested in knowing what everyone's favorite method is to join two pieces! So, feel free to comment with your favorite technique!
