    I found this cornerblock for a pyramid border facing outwards but dont have a clue on how to make the cornerblock on the row facing inwards.
    Any ideas??

    that looks great but is also facing outwards. I am looking for a cornerblock where the points of the pyramidborder face inwards

    I like your rendition of the corner, but I would turn it so the big yellow triangle is facing outward. You are the quilter, and what you like is what you should do. I would have to see it done to know what I like or don't like. My imagination is not as good as the real thing.

    this is what I mean by looking inwards. Btw: you are looking at paper. I made this with papercopies of my fabric as I have to see what I want to make, but I cant come up with a fitting cornerblock.........

    Can't post a picture of my drawing but if you look at your first posting and changed the blue sky fabrics to darks/mediums and the HST square to both triangles being the sky fabric would that work for you?

    sorry I had to drop out yesterday but is was getting 3 a.m. over here...............

    Is this what you mean? looks a bit naked, doesnt it?
    And yep, still playing. Without the help of the paper I would never be able to get the pattern straight with the fabric.
