    Here is the brand new sister of Parisian Solitaire. Her name is Venetian Solitaire. She did get to use some of her sister's hand-me down fabrics.
    This one is for me! Thank you to every person on this board who encouraged me to make this one and challenge myself.

    All it needs now is binding - that's why you see a little bit of white batting at the edges.

    Pattern is adapted from "Cards Anyone?" which appeard in the August 2007 issue of Quilter's World.

    I know the fabrics have a lot to do with it but GIRL, you made them work. I was amazed with the other one but I think this one has it beat. I've done card tricks but I just don't know if I could pull that off, well maybe with detailed instructions! LOL
