It seemed that each block had an issue with the star points. So it was clear that it was that portion and not the whole block. I fiddled with it and TA DA!!! I finished one and while it's not perfect, it's pretty darn good and I am just tickled pink. I think I'll make one more practice block to perfect that section and then I'm going to start on my own Dizzy Geese quilt.
    looks very pretty. love the colors.
    Thank you so much for your suggestions, they really helped.

    I got the pattern from an old book: A Leisure Arts book called Quick Quilts from your Scrap Bag. I scored the book on Amazon for like $5 and have made two other quilts from it. It has some very nice patterns and has proven worth the $5 for sure.
    This is also one of my favorite books, too. I have made 6 quilts from it and love it. I went and got it to look at the quilt block you made. Thanks for sharing.
