Twisted Ammann Tiling
The following set of pieces show how an Ammann Tiling can be created using 30-degree pattern blocks. The tiling is similar to the Ammann tiling, but has two diamonds.
Using this transform, the following diagrams show how the substitution tiling grows.
The following shows the two diamonds D0 to D3.

The following shows the squares S0 to S3.

Note that there is no symmetrical properties of the square.
The following shows a star created using these pieces, St0 to St2 and St3.
