The Card Trick blocks came from an exchange. One of them was larger than the others (12" rather than 9"). Another came after I had set the sixteen. I didn't want to disassemble what I'd done, nor did I want to make three more blocks (to total 20). I pieced the large block into the back and I used the last block as the label. The quilt is 66 x 66. (More about this quilt design is in this post and preceding it.)
I used red thread. I outline-quilted the "cards" and meander-quilted the "logs."
This quilt will be raffled at our AAUW holiday luncheon.
I like the name the Card Trick block suggests. NICE to have a Christmas Quilt finished for this year!
ReplyDeleteNice way to use the larger block and the extra. Love the quilt, Nann.
ReplyDeleteWell done I am sure you will enjoy it this year - I must get to my Christmas ufos soon - thanks for the inspiration
ReplyDeleteThis turned out so well. Funny how we can create a new design for the back to use the blocks left over. This should garner some good money for AAUW.
ReplyDeleteNann, the Christmas Card quilt is just beautiful and I LOVE the setting you used. I'm sorry you did not get all of your blocks on time to use them. I hope it raises plenty $$ for your group.
ReplyDeleteFinished looks good too! :)
ReplyDeleteLove from Indiana! ~bonnie
Congrats on the winning $ for this. I'm sure that feels good for such a great quilt.
