D4P Diagonal

D4P Diagonal
I was working on some D4P blocks when I got to wondering what it would look like if I cut it diagonally. I put a rough block together with my machine in sore need of some TLC and missed the majority of my points and junctions. Still the effect is quite nice. My husband wanted to see what multiple blocks would look like together so I scanned in the block and created this little digital 4 block design. Has anyone else tried this...there's obviously some tricks, adjustments and techniques that could make this block work out better. I'd love to hear from anyone else who's tried this and how you handled the remodeled block. Thanks.

I've seen several of those blocks around, and found these instructions:

I don't know that there's any "tricks" to get seams to match other than very careful measuring, cutting, and nesting seams.
Looks like it's a lot of fun, though!

Love the fabric you used but what happened for all the points to be so off??
Neat idea !! First blocks disappear and now they are being whacked diagonally !!
What is next??
