Diamonds Can Be a Quilter’s Best Friend
$23.99
by Billie Lauder
Billie will show you how to play with 60 and 45 degree Diamonds. You will loose the fear of working with bias edges. The “Y” seam will become just another seam to you. You will understand how to figure out your filler triangles and squares. She will show you basic steps for a four patch, nine patch, a tumbling block and a star. You will find that the basic method of construction stays the same no matter what the angle is. She will put a new “slant” on your thinking.
