Goal
Move all 104 cards to foundations to win. There is no stock or redeal.
Starting layout
Use two decks. Set aside one ace and one king of each suit as eight foundation seeds. Arrange 64 face-up cards in an 8-by-8 quilt with alternating vertical and horizontal cards. Deal the other 32 cards face up into eight four-card reserves.
How to play
A quilt card is available only if at least one short edge is free. Move available quilt cards and reserve tops to foundations: build the aces upward and the kings downward by suit, without wrapping. Never refill quilt holes. Move an exposed quilt card or reserve top onto another reserve one rank higher or lower in the same suit. An empty reserve accepts any available quilt card or reserve top. Foundation tops may move to another accepting foundation, but not to the quilt or reserves.
