Made it last winter...It was not "easy" for me...but once I got the hang of the squares, it did make more sense. Accuquilt has a die for thins...but I used 1/2 square triangles to do the same thing...

Someone taught me how to make this over 20 years ago and I had made a Christmas one. I really liked the method so made it again.
Hope it's OK to post the instructions here.
You can mark your fabric with a 45 degree ruler to sew your quick corners. I just eyeballed mine with a piece of tape on the machine.
The tricky part is trimming the block to 9 1/2" as it will end up being 9 3/4" prior to trimming.
There is a ruler out there called Rapid Fire just for the Hunter Star which I think looks really interesting. You just need to look it up and see the demo on youtube.
