LeMoyne Star Assembly part 4

The last things to sew on are the four squares. If you pin these squares onto what would be the left side (pictured above) you can sew them the same way as the triangles...without taking them off the machine to turn. Pin the square down using the Points. Make sure that visually this looks squared to the block. The fabric should all line up. When you get to the center, check to make sure that you are right on the seam and turn. Then sew to the outside edge.
The finished LeMoyne Star block.

Press the seams in toward the star and replace in the lay out.
Next, sew one star segment to another star segment. Make sure the fabric lines up well when you are pinning Point-to-Point. Also make sure your sewing in the center meets just at the proper point. This will be the focus of the block and points need to be sharp here.
Press the seams open and lay out next to the machine again.
Pin the center of the two segments first. Try to lay down all the seam allowances as flat as you can. This should not be a major problem as you pressed all the seams open. Sew Point-to-Point.
The center of the star should have all points meeting nicely. If sewing the two segments together brought the points together at the wrong place in the center then pick it out and re-do.

Pin the triangle in place on the left side of the star points. Point-to-Point and by sight too.
Sew point to point and make sure the stitching ends right at the seam. In class I demonstrated this without taking the fabric out of the machine...it's too hard to get a picture of that. Keep the fabric in the machine.
Turn the fabric to line up the next side.
Pin. (Not necessary if you have not removed your fabric from the machine). Line the fabric up really good.
Sew from that center point to the outside edge. Remember to back stitch.

Once you have cut your fabric and marked the points on all the block pieces then lay the pieces out next to your machine.
You will start with the star points. Pin the points using the Point-to-Point method. Make sure your fabric is also lining up well. Sew Sew Point-to-Point. I am sewing the two together that meet on the seam where the tip of a triangle will be.
Press the seams open and don't trim any fabric off.
Lay the star points back in place.
Each section of star points has a triangle that gets sewn on next.
