The swap directions state (first post)- Please no flowers, lines, solids,etc. These will be returned to you. we need more children fabric. Trucks, houses, food, characters , sports, camping,lets did dig deep and send in different things.License fabric is welcome. Children's fabrics please!!

I think polka dots go under stripes and such. I like polka dot material but it doesn't fit the criteria of an I Spy swap. I do not put it in I Spy quilts but might make I Spy quilts with it. If I receive it I would be disappointed and not use it. I am doing 6 twists and I used the same criteria for the twists as the I Spy swap.

I like the double prints for possibly making memory quilts but more often I use it in two different quilts. I have twins and I find siblings or cousins like similar or same prints in their quilts too.

Here is an I spy I made for a girl using yardage of polka dot print.
