Squares set on point, also known as diamond or diagonal squares, refer to a specific arrangement of squares in a pattern where they are rotated by 45 degrees. Instead of being aligned with the traditional horizontal and vertical axes, the squares are oriented on a diagonal.
In this arrangement, the corners of each square touch the sides of adjacent squares, creating a diamond-like shape. This pattern is commonly used in quilting as it can create visually appealing designs and adds an element of movement and dynamism to a pattern or layout. It offers a different aesthetic compared to the regular horizontal and vertical alignment of squares.
