Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a paper pattern?
No. This is a printed fusible interfacing pattern. The sewing lines are printed directly on the interfacing, making it much easier to create accurate diamond borders.
Do I sew directly on the interfacing?
Yes. Simply follow the printed sewing lines. The interfacing helps keep your pieces aligned while you sew.
Is this suitable for beginners?
Absolutely. The printed sewing lines remove much of the measuring and marking that can make diamond borders difficult.
Will my points match?
The Quiltsmart method is designed to help you create accurate points and consistent seam allowances for beautiful results.
What kinds of projects can I use this on?
Diamond borders look beautiful on quilts, wall quilts, table runners, table toppers, pillows, and many home décor projects.
Can I use scraps?
Yes. Diamond borders are a wonderful way to showcase scraps, coordinated collections or favorite fabrics.
What makes Quiltsmart different from traditional piecing?
Traditional methods require careful measuring, marking, and pinning. Quiltsmart's printed interfacing guides every seam, making piecing faster, more accurate and less stressful.
Why Printed Interfacing?
Instead of measuring every diamond individually, Quiltsmart prints the sewing lines directly on the interfacing. Simply follow the lines to create accurate piecing with less marking, fewer mistakes, and beautifully matched points.
