If these Design Wall posts are meant to inspire, then mine is a big let down this week!
Kinda boring colors . . just a bunch of little squares. It will turn out ok though . . EQ told me so! 🙂
Here’s one block that’s taped in front of my face so I can’t get it wrong while sewing. I know . . I can get it wrong and I probably will!
What’s on your design wall? Link to a specific blog post please — not to your main blog!
Pam in KC says
Judy — I managed to get the wrong link into Mr. Linky.
Marla says
Card trick is one of my favs.
Deb Myers says
I LIKE all your colors…not boring at all!! Gosh, I’m trying to think of the name of that block~ maybe it’s ME that has a
block(age)…hmmm, “card” something…”playing card” maybe??
Anxious to see where the quilt goes from here!! Happy Monday To You!!
Sarah Vee says
You’re brave to chain piece these, Judy! I would need more than the block in front of me to keep things straight:) I have a small flannel board that I transfer my block pieces onto from my design wall to my sewing machine to keep things right. Then I grab my seam ripper because, well, I’m still human and have a tendency to flip my pieces when I put them under the needle! I like this block a lot. Looking forward to seeing the whole deck put together:)!
Tammy says
Judy, I KNEW you’d have something for the design wall today.
Looks like you’ve got a great start on a new quilt. You’ll probably have it finished today!
Ivani says
I like the colors you have chosen for this one.
Linda says
It’s a good job I don’t have a blog, the same thing has been on my design wall for at least 3 weeks. It is a work in progress…but I keep sewing other stuff!!
Becky I. says
Your blocks do look a little more like chicken tracks than card tricks but I do think your quilt will be awsome, they always are!!
Diane says
I can have a sample block up and I still manage to mess it up too. Thanks for sharing your mistakes–keeps me from beating myself up too much knowing I’m not the only one who does such things.
katie z. says
I have not the patience to make that block! I made it once for a baby quilt and thoroughly hated it by the end. Yours look so much nicer than mine did!
Miss Nancy says
Your design wall quilt will turn out to be just right.
Karen S says
Yours is much more interesting than mine this week — I like the colors you’re using!
Just Another Quilter says
Have enjoyed the displays for a few weeks and thought it was time to contribute.
Thanks!
Kathy Wagner says
It’s hard to believe that all those pieces are going to turn into that block!
Mary C says
Looks like a fun quilt once again. You’re pretty tricky… I am sure you have a design in mind to make it different than just a ‘normal’ setting of Card Trick blocks.
My “Design Wall” this week shows our new BOM for Guild in two color ways. Check it out and you can say which way you like in your comments. Thanks for your input.
Linda says
Your Card Trick block brought back memories. I made tons of patchwork pillows to sell at craft shows for about 14-15 yrs back in the “good old days.” Card Trick was one of the most popular patterns.
Bonnie says
Judy you ALWAYS inspire us! I think your colors are wonderful.
Sandy in Canada says
I really didn’t find your colour choices for fabric in yesterday’s post to be boring, but piecing them into Card Trick makes them even more exciting! You continue to amaze me, Judy.
Denise :) says
LOL! At least yours is on the wall . . . mine is still in my head! I like the pattern. 🙂
Denise :) says
And by the way, I love seeing what everybody else has going in their quilty lives! 🙂
Maya says
That’s a very nice colour combination.
sophie says
I think it’s going to be fun to see your quilt come together.
FWIW, even though you can recognize the blocks on my design curtain (no walls in the itty bitty loft, so this is my compromise), I believe the blocks are going to look about 100 times better when they’ve been set with some plain alternate blocks.
carol c says

Nancy says

Looking forward to seeing how your card trick blocks come out.
