It's squared up with triangles in the corners.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17313580400281160627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219691809988138892.post-79861809748173178652020-02-15T07:11:36.383-05:002020-02-15T07:11:36.383-05:00Thanks for the reply.

If I understand correctly, the Polydraw drawing (or the Lone Star block in Easydraw) would still be oriented like a traditional lone star quilt i.e. with the tips of the diamond patches on the 45 degree angle not like your quilt where the tips of the diamond patches are oriented on the vertical axis, correct?

Don't color the patches in the outer portion of the star. If you remove the patch lines you'll get a Sunburst. It will appear to float on the background (not go to the edges of the quilt), but you can get an idea of color placement.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17313580400281160627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7219691809988138892.post-5442247689533027152020-02-14T09:33:29.869-05:002020-02-14T09:33:29.869-05:00Beautiful quilt.
