How to Make a Diamond in a Rectangle Quilt Block
Have you ever wanted to try the Diamond in a Rectangle quilt block? It can be a bit tricky but Kate Colleran and Tammy Silvers simplify it for you in their blog post.
This detailed tutorial demonstrates a couple methods for assembling the block. It includes detailed step-by-step photos and tips to getting the perfect block. It also discusses specialized rulers that can also be used to make a diamond in a rectangle block.
This block is a unique and striking one. I stands well on its own, but is often used in other blocks. For example, the Storm at Sea block uses the block in it.
