Thank You. The printer is busy printing this out as I type. This is something I have always loved but afraid to try. Your tutorial makes it look doable. Going to try.

Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret, For I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true.
this is fantastic, jan. i'd done one the old fashioned way and it was so frustrating! this looks so easy

before you speak THINK
T – is it True? H – is it Helpful? I – is it Inspiring? N – is it Necessary? K – is it Kind?
Thanks, Jan.
I don't know how to do that.....YET!
LIFE IS ABOUT USING THE WHOLE BOX OF CRAYONS.
I wish I'd seen this tut before beginning my current quilt which a lady has asked me to make for her. The pattern is easy to follow but it's cutting out the triangles when the measurements are fiddly. Like my one has 8 and quarter and 8 and five eighths squares. If the light is poor it can be a right pest making sure measurements are exact. The lady took the fabric back from Africa already made into a bed runner by young girls using a rickety old sewing machine and with no access to manuals or the Internet for 'how to's'. I had to unpick the runner down to the pieces they'd cut so as the lady asked for the blocks to be made as if they were stacked upon each other this card pattern was the only one I came across that would be suitable. So far I've made six 22ins blocks, making them as big as the strips would allow in order to show off the bold designs on the fabrics. Your way would've been so much easier!
I have never made a card trick block before but with this tutorial, I think I can do it. Thanks so much for sharing this with us,
Pat
