To make more violets this is called propagating. Cut a leaf from the second or third row from your African violet plant , recut stem on an angle leaving about 1 1/2 inches long, poke down into fresh new soil less mix (equal parts peat moss, vermiculite and perlite) in a 2 inch pot, water till soaking wet, re moisten only if starts to become dry) place in zip lock bag until you see little starts coming up, never let your leaf dry out, keep it moist but not soaking wet. You should have plantlets to pot into their own pots in two to three months. This is done by putting down a leaf with one inch of stem into a soil less African violet mix. Keep wet for three weeks then keep soil moist not soaking wet, you should see little plantlets emerging within six weeks to two months. Also, by seed, and culture.
