They're fun, they're fairly fast going, and kids love them. I'm not so sure about others, but I use two of each square of an animal print, a car, sport ball, or cute doll print if for a girl. Etc, etc you pick 'em. When the child looks the quilt over they match up the pictures (blocks) and usually have a good time with them. Young kids of course. You also can use letters, or numbers, or shapes i.e. squares, triangles and so on. I made one that included bugs and funny little monsters. My granddaughter, age 4, loved it.

I've heard of I Spy's but have never gotten the full definition of them. They sure sound fun!

I'm getting closer on the boys' first bed quilts. I thought D9P's with novelty focus fabrics would be good. Maybe they need I Spy pillow cases?!?!

If you want to do an I-Spy using a disappearing nine-patch, put the I-Spy squares in the 4 corners of the 9-patch. That is a fun one to do and can be very colorful.

I made my sis pot holders my bro a wall hanging and my 2 nephews quilts

Do y'all use teflon on the pot holders and if so, where do you find it? We only have JoAnns here and I have never seen any there.

Thanks

I use insul bright and cotton batting sandwiched in the top and backing fabrics. I get the insul bright from JoAnn when it's on sale of have a coupon.

Does anyone have a picture of an I Spy they? I am interested.
