They go along so fast now, and are totally accurate- two of the things that frustrated me before with having to measure them all the time. I know this is not Rhonda's method, but I so love the speed at which they go together, which allows me to enjoy the beautiful designs these Star Points make.

I cringe when I see a wall hanging I did of Rhonda's, and knowing it took me months to do, when I could do it now in a week, with much greater accuracy. But, sewing itself is a learning curve.
