Alaska Rounds the Corner!


I made 2 corner squares and completed the third side of the border for Alaska. I made the corner blocks from a picture Edyta Sitar posted so I wasn't sure I had the fabrics in the right place to continue the pattern. I was happy to see the corners fit perfectly!

The remaining 2 corner squares are almost done. They'll be the last blocks I need to make for this quilt. Once I attach these 2 borders, I have one border to go. It's just a simple border using the background fabric in the quilt. This quilt took me a while but I love the results. It was definitely worth the time and effort!
