I'm nearly done with the borders here.
What's the best way to deal with the corners?
Cut them to a 90 degree angle and join then as usual?
any other ideas?
Also, how do you like the different coloured centres of the Dresdens?
When I put the same on same, it just didn't work.
I'm linking to WIP Wednesdays at

I would probably put a square in the corners of the border.
I like the different color centers, but.....the top 3 all contrast in value with the Dresdon and the bottom one blends in. Maybe a lighter blue would work in the bottom one.
Lovin these borders!
I love how bright and colorful your dresden blocks and borders are. I agree with Wanda... squares in the corner could really work... especially if you do each corner in the same color as the center of your dresdens (a different color in each corner.)
A fun quilt!!!!
Very cute use of the dresdens!
It looks great with the different centers. As for the borders, I would just continue them out and make the last wedge square. The eye won't be able to tell...
How about mini dresden in the corner?
Simply charming, Brenda. Have you considered using a quarter circle of Dresden in the corners? I.e., all the narrow blade ends point in. Whatever you choose will be fabulous. I like the way you've used fewer solids/more prints in the border. It complements the plates without competing. Great idea.
