Yup! That is what I was about to say. I am glad you figured it out, many people never do. In joining segments, put a vertical pin through where they should all meet, then pin on either side of that.

Also, When I started quilting, the "scant" 1/4" drove me crazy. No one told me that the measure included the hairy edges of the allowance, which makes about 1/32" difference.

Wonder if your ruler could be the culprit? Are the lines thick....could affect actual cuts.

It is so fantastic when you figure out a problem. Look forward to seeing it when it is done! I really like the colors.

Well I don't know about epic but I sure do love these fabrics. I just hope I don't royaly mess it up. Now I'm trying to figure out set in seams. WHAT was I thinking when I tackled this monster.

Update on my Feathered Star...
I've got them all sewn together with 4 of the set in sections (ugh there aggravating also) sewn in. I lost one of the points in the center. I've tried to fix it once already. It's just too noticable to leave it like that. Also have couple other spots that are off a bit. I WILL NOT LET THIS BEAT ME. Updates to follow........
