Just beautiful and the middle of the star looks great. I have done 2 stars which I gave one as a wedding gift and sold the other one. My big worry was the middle that it would not turn into a bowl or a tent. Your work is just super!!

Beautiful so far. Hey what is wrong with your points??? I don't see anything wrong.
