Is this after it trims from one star to the next or where is it happening? Maybe attach a picturemofmit so we can take a look?

Being stars their is a good chance your stitch lengths are to short and trying to pack to many stitches in to a small area. Check your stitch lengths and zoom in and make sure you are not trying to place a penetration to another penetration.
