There are different ways to make a lonestar. One is in a Craftsy class by Kimberley Einmo called Magical Jelly Rolls. You might try her technique.

Sometimes the level of detail in some Craftsy classes drives me crazy so there you have the opposite viewpoint on videos! I do know how to pin and how to press etc so just skip through those parts.

I understand that you would like a complete lesson on how to construct a quilt during a tutorial but a lot of tutorials assume that viewers are already familiar with correct pressing, cutting, etc. Perhaps look for tutorials where those techniques are addressed. While it might be nice to include that info in each tutorial it can be boring to those who feel they already have those techniques conquered. If a tutorial advertises as how to make a particular quilt then I don't expect it to show me how to cut and press. Not every tutorial is going to show everything each person wants, all we can do is hope for the best. There are many great free tutorials available that cover all aspects of improving quilting skills. Keep looking and watching and don't be deterred in your quest for more thorough tutorials.

Thank you it was I just wanted reinforcement on that point.

The Craftsy free BOMs are pretty detailed.

A lot of the teachers in the tutorials mention that you can pin but they are so advanced in their work that they don't need to. When I run across a tutorial that goes too fast for me, I pause it and work out the step, then watch it again until I 'get' it.

As for "pressing" - a lot of that depends on your iron. One of the famous teachers (and for the life of me, I can't recall who it was) suggests that when you first start with a new configuration to MEASURE AT EACH STEP. That way you can tell if your pieces are cut correctly, if your seam allowance is spot-on, and if you press correctly. Watching someone do the steps, and translating these instructions to your own work takes effort.

I do agree that some of the craftsy classes are wonderful. However, even there, some teachers are more "relaxed" in their accuracy than others.

Different tutorials are suitable for quilters in different stages of development. I go to Youtube to quickly learn a new technique. It would drive me crazy to have to watch everyone include detailled instructions about pressing, cutting, etc. Plus, some quilters do develop the ability to sew very fast and maintain accuracy. I had to work much more slowly and carefully when I was beginning. Nowadays I know exactly when I need to slow down and be careful about accuracy, and when I can speed up without worrying about having problems down the line. The short Youtube videos such as the one posted are aimed more at intermediate and advanced quilters who don't need to see basic techniques demonstrated.

A precision piecing class or dvd is what you want. I won't watch details of how to pin or press when watching tutorial. I seen and read all the ways to do that and have taken many classes from great quilters.

I find pausing and starting help me alot. I just work on each step and start the video for the next.

When I watch the videos and I've just about watched all of them. Jenny Doan and her girls have often said they don't pin every time and that is totally up to you. As far as pressing I've often heard Jenny say to let the fabric cool a bit after pressing before sewing again. If I feel I miss anything, I go to the bottom of the screen and back up the audio bar. I do that to all videos.
