    60 degree diamond vs MSQC Rhombus template

    Is there a difference in a 'typical' 60 degree ruler and what MSQC calls a Rhombus template?
    I love the quilts from Jaybird Quilts but wonder which ruler is the best investment. Opinions? Thanks!

    Once it's symmetrical, cut several out of paper and lay them out - do they work now?
