Card Trick Block
by Jenny!

Jenny demonstrates an easy way to sew a difficult old fashioned block, the card trick.

Finished Size 83" x 94"

**** NOTE- Jenny misspoke on the tutorial. Rather than cutting ALL of the print strips into (6) 4 1/2" rectangles and (6) 2 1/2" squares, the directions say to cut 28 print strips into those increments and to cut each of 11 print strips into (16) 2 1/2" squares. That way there are the correct amount of 2 1/2" squares for snowballing the corners and for making the blocks.
Supplies Needed:
  • 1 Jelly Roll
  • 4 Yds Background (includes inner border)
  • 1 3/4 Yds Outer Border
  • 3/4 Yds Binding
  • 8 1/2 Yds Backing or 2 3/4 Yds - 108" wide
Home Made Popsicles!

Perfect for the kids or the adults!
