My wife was getting into making dumplings and I saw she was struggling with the flimsy handles on the cheap one she had so wasn't getting a nice closed edge. I first made the star edge which worked well, but needed a few more layer in the perimeter to strengthen the hinge area, then I also dropped the layer height to .15 for better bonding. Works really well. Had banana and caramel sauce dumplings for breakfast, yum. I then created the fanned design so she can differentiate different fillings. They both work great, really solid. If you make them maybe share your filling ideas. Good luck.
