OK as my name indicates I have no business giving quilting tips but ....... here goes. Someone on here introduced me to the miracle of starch. Everything matches easier, is easier to cut and is easier to sew if you turn it just about to cardboard.

Hi Debr, welcome from Florida. Don't know where it is, but in the tutorials, I believe, PatriceJ, has a template for matching angles that should be a big help to you. If I find it, before someone else does, I'll post the link. :D

sorry, I tried, but just don't know where to look. It's a template pattern that you can download and then make your own with plastic or cardboard or freezer ppr. It already has the corners cut, (you know, "the ears", that you have to trim), and should help you get your points lined up.
Maybe you could private message Patrice and ask her. She is one of our moderators. Hope this helps. :D
