Diamonds

Оглавление

Diamonds commonly used in patchwork are those with 60 degree and 45 degree angles, making a short diamond and a long diamond. See also Patchwork with Diamonds and Polygons.

Drawing – To draw the shapes with seam allowances = finished height + 12in (1.3cm) and finished width + 12in (1.3cm).


Cutting – Diamonds can be cut in a similar way to triangles. First cut the fabric into strips that are 12in (1.3cm) wider than the finished height of the diamond. Use the 60 or 45 degree line on the ruler to cut diamonds of the desired angle and width.
