Default Diamond Quilt

I've been looking everywhere for a tutorial on how to sew 60 degree diamonds together. Not the Kaffe way, it's too complicated. There has to be a way to get there that's easier. Anybody got any ideas?

I was in a block swap doing it Kaffe's way and it was awful !! I starched the fabric and was so careful. NEVER want to make another one of those blocks. Too much bias edges.

I think Sharon Schamber might have a tutorial. She is very good.

Are you machine sewing or hand sewing? Inklingo has a great video for hand sewing.

I love Kaye Woods techniques. I use her technique for Y seams and it works great.
