Make a Diamond Garden Quilt Using Creative Grids 60° Mini Diamond Ruler | a Shabby Fabrics Tutorial

[@esthermcafee5293]

OK, the row matching trick was the most useful bit of quilting knowledge I’ve gotten in 2023! I may just have to pull my diamonds project out of the time out box.

I am so happy that we could help. That tip is super useful! -Kristen

Ive used this ruler twice before with the 10” squares. I started by folding the square in half and pushing the ruler up close to the pinked edge, then cutting the two at once. That method easily left enough for the third diamond.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Thank you for watching! -Kristen

[@klikes99]

I’m cutting my extras into 2.5 by 4.5 or 2 x 3.5 for a potato chip quilt. ❤

[@ShabbyFabrics]

That’s an amazing idea! Thanks so much for watching :) -Michelle

[@mariaastafyeva1426]

I saw that flowerhouse released a viola collection. It really is beautiful but I am struggling to find a pattern for it, and I already have this video’s quilt planned for another fabric. Would you mind doing a video that features quilt patterns suitable for big “star” prints?

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Thank you for watching. We will pass that idea along to our quilters! -Kristen

[@SmittenKitten.]

I know this might be a HUGE thing to ask of y'all, but would you guys maybe, possibly consider doing a BOM/sew along with Thimble Blossoms' Adore quilt when Camille's new fabric is released? I don't know how difficult something like that is to put together, but I'd so love to do that with y'all!

[@ShabbyFabrics]

That's a great idea! We'll make that suggestion to our design team :) -Michelle

[@danander11]

Thanks for this, the row alignment info is great for new quilters such as myself. May I ask which foot you are using with your Bernina? Thanks.

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Happy that you love this project and enjoyed the tutorial! We are using the Bernina 97D patchwork foot. Thanks for your comment! - Abby

[@lisabuckner2881]

Would this look good with a border. I would love for it to be bigger

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Hi Lisa - You can definitely add a border to this quilt :) -Michelle

[@MaryEllenBrook]

Great tutorial! I bought the ruler and the pattern! Just curious what foot you are using on your Bernina?

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Hi Mary! Thank you so much for watching the video. We are using the 97D foot. Hope this helps. -Kristen

[@athenaharris7328]

Can you order the guide page without the diamonds to purchase? The guide alone

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Yes, you can find this pattern here: www.shabbyfabrics.com/search?sortOrder=6&q=diamond+garden Thanks for watching! -Michelle

[@kathyhamlow86]

I was given several 8" squares. Will the 60 degree ruler work on that size of square?

[@ShabbyFabrics]

Hi Kathy - With the Creative Grids 60° Mini Diamond Ruler, you'd only be able to get 1 diamond of out of an 8" square. Hope this helps! -Michelle

[@dragonfang95]

I'm new to quilting and I've always been told pre-shrink your fabric. Why would you not want to pre-wash?

[@ShabbyFabrics]

It is up to you. We don’t. When fabric comes in a kit, it could shrink if you wash it and why we add in extra fabric in case of that happening. Thank you for your comment and hope this helps! - Abby

[@danahatmaker6863]

I've been trying to cut my diamonds on my 10" squares and can not get 3 diamonds. what am i doing wrong?

[@ShabbyFabrics]

If you're using the Creative Grids Mini 60 Degree Diamond Ruler, you should be able to line your ruler up like Jen does at timestamp 4:08. After she cuts that diamond, she demonstrates how to cut the other 2. Hope this helps :) -Michelle
