Thanks. Yes, I made it for my great-niece's first birthday last summer. It is an I Spy quilt, about 48" X 60". The avatar only shows a small section. It was a lot of fun to piece. I purchased I Spy squares over the internet instead of going crazy buying material and fussy cutting. I did have to do an emergency run to Joannes because a few of the squares were too similar. It was also my first attempt at printing a photo onto fabric - the picture of the baby (she has a lot more hair now lol.) My daughters helped me with the photo printing and it turned out to be pretty easy to do. The hard part was deciding what color to make the stones and sashing because the squares contained so many colors. My mom suggested yellow for the sashing and then I bought fat quarters in a yellow/orange small print for the stones.
