Matching points on 45 Degree Diamonds- such as those in lone star quilts - can be tricky. Here's how I match those points once I am at the stage of joining rows.

You will need a Frixion pen or air erasable/water erasable marker, plus a clear ruler and a flat headed pin for each seam you want to match.

This tutorial really helped me get my diamonds lined up perfectly! Also my first lone star quilt! Thanks so very much!!!

Thank you! I cut my pieces exactly. Usually cut a tad larger then pattern stipulates and square up after sewing. So this time I've really struggled. Your method has been a fantastic help. My diamonds have perfect points with evenly lined up fabric edges. For adding the next piece.

So brilliant. After I spent a weekend with hit and miss, this video really helped me! Thanks!

Agree with the others; this technique is point perfect! Thanks so much. Thankfully I found this after only sewing a few together. I will be seam ripping those out as the 1/4 inch was inconsistent. These are spot on! Thank you! Thank you!

Thanks for this wonderful tip. Starting a big quilt next with a very big star and feel more confident now.👍

I do the same technique. Only I don't mark the fabric I just eyeball it. Comes out great everytime!

I started the lone star pattern this weekend and just spent the entire afternoon struggling to match those seams! Ripping and sewing and ripping and sewing. I knew there had to be a trick out there. This worked perfectly. Thank you so much!!
