For years I used Elanor Burns, Quilt in a Day, special rulers but I switched this summer to June Taylor perfect Half Square and Quarter Square Triangles. I like that even better. If you use that it will give you those perfect Ohio Stars you want.
Here is a video showing you how to use it-

I really like your table runner. It is very pretty.
By the way I think your applique is awesome and I wished I could aplique like that.
Two things:
You appliqued the double wedding ring? How did you do that?
I watched the tute on the June Taylor ruler....good ruler, but the demostrator made me smile.......we all sew in our kitchen.....I wish my counters were so "clear"....and I always dress to the T while I am quilting.....just my silly observations......
