Hello friends, fellow quilters, and fellow "grammies", I now have a 6 week old grandson, (my first ) ) and have made him several quilts, helped decorate his room. etc. etc., but am now planning to make him an "I Spy" quilt to be used when he gets a little older, and starts to recognize pictures, colours, etc. I have a bunch of 5" squares collected, but want to find the "perfect" I Spy quilt pattern.

The planks already have the backing attached: you can install it right over concrete or underlayment. Jory
