I used a book called, "The joy of quilting? it had the Lone Star in it. The strips were cut at 2 ins and sewed into sets and then the diamonds were cut at the 45 degree angle, I think. I don't think I would attempt a star with the 1/2 inch triangles lol...that would drive me batty. I would so much rather deal with the set ins and y-seams any day as they really are not that hard, if you take your time and pin.
