weste both quilts are beautiful. Is that a Kaleidascope technique?
jessiesmom; I found if I make the pcs. which border the pts. on either side (In westes quilt for instance it would be the white pcs.) slightly larger so they overlap the pts. slightly, it gives you that 1/4in seam to sew w/o dipping into your star pt. Also it's easier to trim the blocks to a uniform size w/o losing your pts. :D
