Thanks, Mish. I must confess I found the Card Trick difficult to assemble. It looks very simple, but I guess there's a reason it's called a "trick." I've always admired the block also, but have never made one before.
Thanks, Claudia. I'll check it out.

Ladies, if you can get your hands on the Quilt in a Day book by Eleanor Burns called Card Trick all the mystery on assembly will be over. She has the easiest and most foolproof method. I know I made two quilts from her pattern.
Your blocks are wonderful.

I also have a easy way of putting it together. In fact..I just made one tonight for one of my other swaps.
