    Hi, I'm crafftygrandma from Mississippi. My first quilt was a maple leaf top with the piano keys border. I didn't finish the quilt and now I need to know how to make the piano keys border match at the corners. Please any one, help!!!!

    You can google piano key border and get other variations but I liked that one best. I did this on a logcabin quilt.

    The border that I have made has the strips witht he black on top of the black keys and then different patterns from the quilt for the white keys on a piano. I just couldn't get my corners in right, I think this will help me to do that. I also like it because I think it is easier than the one I have made.
