I did the Mexican Stars about 5-6 years ago, before I started taking pictures of my work. It may be somewhere in my sewing room, but I make no promises. I'm attaching a picture of a quilt called Wandering Vines, or something like that, which I am working on. The curves in the leaves are made using the same technique. As I was turning the edges, I pressed them down, then placed two tiny drops of glue under the fabric that was folded over and pressed again to dry the glue. That way, I didn't have any pins to worry about. I am machine stitching all of my curves. Also, the way these rows were put together is the same technique Ricky Timms uses for his one seam flying geese.
