    Yes, but I forgot to do so. So, I just sewed and cut to make it work.

    My dad and mom love this quilt! My mom stated that she has used it too. So, looks like I will be making her an I Spy quilt for her 80th birthday.

    Awesome quilt. I've only ever done 'I spy' quilts for children. This is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing.

    This is the prettiest I Spy quilt I've yet seen... I'm sure he loved it and has fun looking at all the little stuff in each of the squares. I'm going to bookmark it!
