There are a lot of charm packs and a layer cake, but I got most of mine by doing swaps here on the board. There is a regular I spy quilt swap, I just got my most recent one back - sent in 16 bags of 10 and got back 160 different prints. Sometimes there is an additional twist with a them. I made myself a queen size I spy which has almost 600 blocks in it for kids to play with when they come to visit. I think I have more fun with it than they do!

Beautiful quilt and I love the use of the stripe for the Jars. I may have to steal that idea for my canning jar quilt for the kitchen if I ever get it made!
