Has anyone tried this lonestar pattern

She makes it look easy. Does the interfacing stay in. I wish she had shown how she sews a row together

Yes, I just finished a red white and blue lonestar using the panels. It is easy. The interfacing stays put, there is no bias, and it is easy, easy, easy. They fit together very easily, but follow the instructions.

It's fabulous. I'm a huge fan.
As I just wrote in another post, the only cons are that you're limited to the sizes offered, and the additional cost (which I thought was justified by the hassles avoided and the ease with which it goes together).
I posted this on the "yellow" thread a couple of weeks ago.

A little pin here and there won't harm the process ;-).
You can do a very large basting stitch (an old Carol Doak trick) if you wanted to see if the diamonds match up correctly before you commit. I will say that it is a royal PITA to do any unpicking of small stitches on that interfacing so be sure before you sew.
Once all the rows in a section were all sewn together, I split the seams and pressed them open, but that's just a personal preference. It's not necessary.
