Since switching to her method my enjoyment and accuracy of piecing these has increased tremendously. I didn't use the video, I used the instructions found in her book Scrappy Fireworks Quilts.
    I should have mentioned that the link I posted was for the Edyta Sitar video.

    PS Does "Scrappy Fireworks Quilts" include cutting sizes of the pieces to make various sizes of LeMoyne/8 Point Stars?

    Answering my own question! In her book "Simply Stars", Alex Anderson gives excellent instructions and includes the cutting chart for LeMoyne/8 Point stars, attached. Thanks Alex!
