I need a 5in (or is it 5.5in) 60 deg diamonds

And I have no idea how to do this... I am seriously impaired in my ability
to visualize anything. I have 4 in ones and 6 in ones but no 5 in ones. I
realize that the rulers have these lines on them but.... not gonna happen
lol. So aside from buying yet another ruler, can anyone help me with a
template? I would buy one but I dont want to wiat for the shipping. And I
was unable to find any free ones to print. Does anyone have a link to
printable template shapes? I spent tonns of money today on a beautiful kit
I want to make (and yes I know I have a 1000 wip to do but I need to get my
motivation back and this is just the thing lol) and it had templates in it
for everything under the sun but the silly 60 deg diamind Thanks all

Give us the specifics of the block you want to make -- and one of us (I
will) draft it in EQ and send you a copy of the templates!

Take a look at the 60 degree Clearview triangle rulers at
http://aliciasattic.com/store/store_tools.html. You can cut a diamond
by cutting on folded fabric. These are available at various places
online or at quilt shops. My local LQS ordered the Super 60 Combination
ruler for me a couple years ago. I've used it several times, but haven't
gotten to the project I ordered the ruler for The patterns in Sarah
Nephew's book "Big Book of Building Block Quilts" require the ruler.

Hi Thanks all for trying to help. but none of my rulers have a 60 degree
mark on them And the templates are too small. I dont know how to make
them the right size. I need it to be 5 in (5.5in unfinished size) As I

If the rulers have a 30° line (and most of them do) that is the
equivalent of a 60° line, you just have to line it up on a vertical
rather than a horizontal line (or the opposite, depending on which way
you are working with it) - test it out on a piece of paper.

The Clearview Super 60 ruler that I mentioned earlier should work quite
well. Find the line on the ruler that will result in half of the diamond
of the size you want; then position that line on a fold and cut.
http://aliciasattic.com/store/product46.html It is available at
various online merchants and possibly at your LQS. My LQS was able to
order it for me.
