    I found this free tutorial on how to create this New Jersey block pattern. It looks pretty easy and made from the strip method. I will try this tonight after work. I have been looking at the different block ideas on this board and have decided to work on a block a day. doubt I will finish a block a day, but vow to at least work on one. I think its a wonderful idea and can't wait to begin. Here is the link to the first one I will try.

    I can't believe that difficult-looking block goes together so easy.

    I read somewhere that if you PAUSE the video for a while to let it get way ahead, then press PLAY you might be able to watch some of these videos. I tried it and it worked for me - no more annoying stopping and starting waiting for it to BUFFER. Hope it works for you.

    Watched the tute, good block. I like your idea of a block a day, tackle these blocks one at a time and you'll be done in no time.
