I just finished making this quilt in a queen size for my daughter I had a few Uh OH's but in the end it came out really well, I was very happy with my beginner results as was she. I love MSQC & of course Jenny.

Just a suggestion - she says to measure your HST made from the 10" squares and make the corner pieces that size. Maybe your HST units are not the 6 1/2", thus your corner pieces are too large/small which ever the case maybe.

I watch their tutes multiple times and back up and go forward multiple times and make notes. Anxious to see yours when completed. Ariannaquilts love your quilt. Gorgeous.

Sometimes we just try to make things to hard. This is really easy. Just make your star block. when it is all sewn together, take whatever 10" sq color you want cut it in 1/2 twice to make 4 ( 5" squares). Press the square in 1/2 on the diagonal or draw a line on the diagonal. Place these squares in the corner and sew them on the diagonal. Take the corner that faces your star and fold it to match the opposite corner. Press. trim. easy peasy.
