Can someone please tell me where i can find border fabric that is used in the card tricks pattern, i've looked online but i must not be searching for the right name. I want to make them like jennypenny did. Thank you for your help. Denise

she just collected different fabs at different times. you do know that that is not any EASY quilt to piece right? it takes a LOT of matching.

I too have been collecting border fabrics for the Card Trick pattern of Jennypenny, but alas, I haven't started actually making the block yet. I purchased 12-14 different border-type prints at Joann Fabrics in Orland Park, IL. I have two Joann's within 15 miles of my home and the one in Countryside, IL had NONE. If you visit the "Card Trick Block using Stripes" thread on the board, you'll see some photos of the fabrics I bought. Jennypenny was nice enough to critique my choices and as soon as I finish the Nutcracker Quilt for my DGD and the Shadow Quilt for my DD, I'll start cutting into the stash. Hope you have some Joann Stores near you. I was thrilled with the variety they had. Belles

Jinney Beyers has a large selection of border prints at her on line store.

Yes i know it will be somewhat difficult and i'm kinda new at all this but i figure if i mess up oh well, it will be a learning experience and it's only fabric. I probably won't start till after the holidays anyway as i have lots of projects to do for christmas. Thank you. Denise
