:oops: I'm so embarrassed to ask if anyone can help me out. I have 4 lovely nieces which 2 live in each house, my problem is I would love to make them each an I-spy quilt. I've been buying fabric and buying more fabric bought squares off e-bay just to make 2 I-Spy quilts. WHich I'm sure you can image I bought a little over 100 different fabrics but I need 100 different ones. OUCH the pocket book. lol :P They are 4" squares so if anyone can donate (or I'm willing to pay for 1/4 if I don't have) fabric it would be greatly appreciated.

I'll look & see what kind of things I have at home.
And don't be embarassed, we're here to help! :D |
Oh thank you so very much.
|
I am not at all sure what I have. But I just bought a lot of scraps on eBay I will go through them for I-spy worthy fabrics. I will get back to you as soon as I can.
|
OMG .... PLEASE PM YOUR HOME ADDRESS..... how many thousands do you need? hahhahahahahahahaa.... (okay, this is a very evil laugh) :):):):)
|
send me a pm, also. i don't know how many of my fabs are i-spy-ish, or how many of the bazillions of squares on hand, but i'll be happy to look. what's a postage stamp or two in a crisis? :wink:
|
I have no kids, so am unsure what an "I-Spy" quilt is. What exactly do you need?
|
THey are novality fabrics with like cats, dogs, fish, food on them.
|
I'm sure I have afew pm me your address :D
|
Do need any princess, tinkerbell or mermaids?? I just made my granddaughters I spy so I have alot of girly I spy fabric. PM me if I can help.
|
I have two or three fabrics with fish - black, light blue and royal blue backgrounds. I also have fabric, black background, with chili peppers - not sure if that's of any use to you. Send me your address and let me know what will work for you. You're trying not to duplicate a block, right?
|
I'm glad to share. Please PM me your mailing address. Make sure you restate the size again.
|
I've got a few fabrics that I could send. Send me your PM and I'll mail them out.
|
Renee, PM me your address. I am working on I spy for boys right now but some of the squares would work for girls too.
|
OMG! I'd jump on this bandwagon, but not knowing exactly what letters you are looking for, I can't really help. I don't have much in the way of childrens prints, but I'd be glad to help you out. Just let me know.
|
Another thing that I discovered (after I'd already collected my novelty prints) :( is that individuals have done swaps of squares on this site for I Spy squares. Usually when you buy 1/4 yards you will have enough to do a few squares from each & then have left overs. Swapping helps so that you don't have to buy as many & get a good variety. Then you're only out the postage.

hi renee could you use bugs i have a lot of bug prints to do a jar quilt some of these are very pretty pm me your address im glad to share!

Hey Renee; if you will e-mail me your address I have plenty I would love to share with you free of charge!
[email protected] Thanks! Renae in CA :D |
I can probably help too - I've got a bunch of novelty fabric. :) PM me with your address and remind me of the sizes, and if you have any special request (ie must start with letter P), just let me know.

Well if you do not have enough to make 4 full I spyquilts. Then do what Pam H did and use 4 patches in between. A quilt is a quilt and you can make it any way you want. Don't worry just make them and have fun!!!!
Your nieces will love them anyway. I think Pam H made her I spy quilt look really cute. |
Renee, I have a few things I can send - do you want them cut 4 1/2 " to make a four inch block?

I am not sure what I have in novelty prints, but I will check and see if I can get a few on their way to you. good luck and good quilting |
Wow! Looks like you'll be getting plenty of new spies! If you still need more PM me and I'll send away! Never be afraid to ask for help, thats what we do!
|
Ijust saw on another message board someone asking for help due to low funds for a 4 year old child that had cancer, also wanted fabric for "I spy"
isn't that unusual |
Renee, PM your address to me too. I always have lots of fabric!! And I have a bunch of kids stuff that you could use.
|
Hey there, I have some scraps left from an "I spy quilt"....how big of a piece does each one have to be. PM me your address and I will pass along the pieces that are big enough. Good luck with your quilts...we want to see pictures when your finished!!!!

Hi Renee,
If you are still looking for I spy fabrics. I have a few you might like. I have the following: beige background with brown/beige teddies, black background with Mary Engelbreit teapots, and a light blue background with bunnies wearing hats. If you're interested, send me your address and I'll get them in the mail. Do you need a fat 1/4 or a regular 1/4 or just one 4 inch square of each? Juli |
I just finished I spy quilts with my granddaughters and have lots of fabrics left over. PM me and I will send you out some. There were some very sweet quilters that helped me when I needed more squares so I will pass it on.
