Alaska Territory Quilt Block

Skill level: Intermediate

The Alaska Territory Quilt Block is another block named after the United States territory of Alaska (now a state). For more examples, see

• Alaska Homestead Quilt Block
• Alaska Quilt Block

If you don’t look carefully, you might think that the Alaska Quilt Block is simply a recoloring of the Alaska Territory Quilt Block. But a more careful examination of the block’s construction will reveal that the Alaska Territory is on a 5×5 grid, while the Alaska Quilt block is designed around a 4×4 grid.
