I trimmed up a block, then added border strips. The block needs to be trimmed again just a bit, otherwise it will look just like the photo.
In Electric Quilt I experimented with the block, leaving off borders on two sides and making the remaining borders much thicker. I figured the points would touch the cornerstones, tightening up a group of four pizza slices to look more like a flower. That did happen. However, the result looked a little too predictable to me, and I preferred the original design where the slices kind of float, so that’s what I’m sticking with.
