I need help please. I am attempting to do my first stars quilt. It comprises of 8 star points, each which is made up of 9 diamonds and once joined are supposed to match up exactly in the centre of the main star. Well it doesn't matter how careful I am when I iron or how precise I am with each seam I just cant get the centre points to all join up and match. AGH!!!!!!!!! I have made 3 whole stars and one is such a mess that I nearly gave up there and then. I am a fairly new quilter and maybe I should stick to the more simple quilt tops at the moment, but I really did think that I would be able to do it!! Is there anyone out there who has had the same problem and can tell me what in the heck I need to do. i can't afford to throw it away and that's just what I feel like doing at the moment!!! :oops:
