Im so glad to see others sew on the back and turn to the front. I thought you had to sew on the front. My back always looks better than the front on the corners. I'm sewing on the back from now on. Geri I took out about one inch when I first started and thought I would never get it out. Surprisingly it is really sewed together good. I also forgot to say that I did all of the piecing on my serger. With this Missouri Star pattern it was fine and it was really fast.
