How would you describe an I Spy Quilt?

I make many I Spy quilts, along with the washing instructions & fabric content I enclose a paper that says "fun for cuddle & play" so with the description in the raffle ones it says "I Spy, fun for cuddle & play"

When I do an I Spy quilt, I do it in 2 halves. I cut out two of each of the motif I want to use. One half is a simple search and find using one of each of the two fabrics. The second half the motifs are all scrambled around. That way if you fold the qult in half, one half will be a search and find. But if you open the quilt up, it becomes a matching game.

I make a quick I Spy version. Each block is a diff fabric, with 2 snowball corners. I trim the extra HST, sew them into a flying goose and that becomes part of the border. Not only can you look for things in the novelty fabrics, you can match them to the border. (and I use up all those leftover HST!)
