Terri, your block is lovely even if you have a point or two off. It'll hardly be noticeable, if at all, once it's quilted so try not to be so hard on yourself. I understand what you are talking about though. I often have the same problem. Have you considered paper piecing them to see if that method works better for you? I find my results are better. Not perfect, but better. Some day - some week? - I plan to sit at the machine and just make geese the regular way until I can get the points more consistently right. Until then, pp'ing it is.
