I love the card trick pattern, I use the pattern from my Block by Block book, so easy. I find that cutting out the pieces and laying them out helps to sew them together right. The first block I made I tore a lot of it apart. Keep your picture handy and the block piece laid out, work across one square at a time in each row (you should have 3 rows of 3 squares). It is an easy block to do after you do the first 1 or 2. Good luck and post pics when done.
