Is there a pattern for it or did you just cut it on an angle yourself?
I made a D4P with 7 inch squares to start off with. After it was all put together I took my 9 1/2 square ruler and marked the center of it. Then I lined up the center of the ruler with the center of the block and rotated it. I stopped rotating it when the corners of the ruler met the edges of the block. Pushing firmly on the ruler so as not to move it the slightest during cutting I then cut all the way around the square. I hadn't planned on making a quilt with this since it's going to the Quilting group I belong to as a BOM...but...since I was so pleasantly surprised with the results...I may have to re-think that! ;-)
