LOL I'm laughing at that because that is the reason I started doing the applique, I kept cutting off the points. But the first applique I did was a Dreden and the blades came so close to the edge of the block it seemed that it would be hard to sew the blocks together without catching the tips so I learned real quick to print the pattern sized for a size smaller block so I have plenty of space around the pattern and it didn't interfere with sewing the blocks together. Yep I cheat! LOL but it's better that way some times. It's better known as "Tricks of the Trade". LOL
BTW love me block, thanks so much!
