It looks nice. I can't see that the points are off that much. Congratulations!!!!!

I'm working on the same block but my alternate block is an Irish Chain. You may have had problems with your flying geese blocks because when we do it the standard way, we are cutting on the bias. It stretches when we do that.

Eleanor Burns came up with a different way to do it and I've been using her method for most of my blocks. First I tried doing it by Fons and Porter's method but I became so frustrated with my blocks (I was loosing points on my star too) that I switched to Eleanor Burn's method.
E.B.'s method wastes more material but I became so frustrated on working on the block that I was afraid if I didn't find an easier way for me, I would end up not finishing it. Not all of my points are on but most of them are.

If you ever want to do this pattern again, there are several different ways to do flying geese. Here are a few of the ones I've found on the net.

I've never tried this first one but it looks interesting. It is a 1 seam flying geese block.
