i do not have a ruler with me to measure the angle- but it is the same as it is when you buy the tumbling blocks diamond templates from paperpieces.- just larger-
as for the prep work- i draw on my seam lines because i hand piece and it gives me perfect match points and a line to follow.
tutorial is posted now

What degree is the angle of the diamonds and did you say the sides are 3 1/2" each? Also, why do you need to mark the seam lines?
