Lone Star

My lone star! <3 I love the way it turned out! The points didn't all come together perfectly in the center but other than that I'm happy with the way it turned out.

Good job! I hope to make one someday. I will be happy if it turns out as good as yours.

Beautiful! No one will notice once it is quilted that the center points didn't all meet. I would be so proud of it if I were you!

Nice job! You know, I wouldn't even have noticed the points in the center if you hadn't mentioned it.

Great job. I have struggled with two Lonestars. Got one completely done and the other Lonestar is completed but awaiting applique in the setting triangles and squares. I recently found foundation piecing from Quiltsmart, and no joke, I think you can make one in a day using four fabrics for the smaller one. Foolproof (well, nearly) and so MUCH faster. The points line up perfectly with occasional tweaking needed upon occasion, but easy to do. I am not thinking I will EVER make one any other way. Congratulations on your finish.
