I posted a question concerning the "unfinished" size of this star block and didn't get any replies. My block came out smaller than the "unfinished" 12 1/2" size. I want to make another block due to the fact that my points don't match up as well as I would like them to...I'm learning to PP.

Sooo - hopefully attempt number 4 will be a success!
What fun!!
