If the main star is too big and you have to quilt inside it ... STID your pieces in the star (assume they're diamonds?) to meet in the center of the star - but again - just the main star. Treat the shadow star differently.
The blocks are made up of 2" squares (finished size) & HST's. So the center of the main star is 4" sq. plus HST's making the points.
