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.

You can also do I Spy using fabric that represents letters of the alphabet. Instead of matching pictures you can have two figgerent fabrics that represent each letter. Then you can have them find the squares that start with A, etc.
|
I describe them as quilts with lots of identifiable objects on them. When I donate them I add a label that says, "This is an I Spy quilt. What can you find?"

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!)
