zyx thanks for this block you just save me a lot of time. A friend ask if I could make a quilt for her husband, she wanted 2 colors and it is to be done with corduroy. I have been searching for a simple pattern that would work. Thanks to you I now have it. I hope to do the BOM today so I can figure out what I'll need for the quilt and also get estimate on how long it will take. Again thanks for a great block
