2 of my friends, who have never even thought of doing a lone star, took the Radiant star class from Eleanor herself back in Oct. They loved it. said everything went together just great. I have the book and I think the directions are very good. go for it. Eleanor will not fail you.

I actually brought the book and have dedicated fabric to making 2 King size quilts. I have reviewed the book and don't feel it will be hard. Eleanor Burns' books have very good instructions. Everything was thought of. Just stay with the instructions and don't jump (like i wanted do sometimes) and you shouldn't have any problems. I also have the patterns for the Lone Star which is almost like EB' Star and decided that the directions were too confusing to me.

Very good book with lots of tips
 

The book has so many tips to help you succeed.
I used my walking foot to sew the strip sets together.

I have made several and her instructions to do it are great!
