Yes, there are I Spy swaps on this board quilt often. The last one just finished up not long ago, and we decided to wait til the Fall to do another one. Watch the swaps section in the fall...

I love jar quilts. Great idea for I Spy!

People sell sets of I Spy fabric on Etsy but be careful...many of them don't center the picture very well. PM me and I can send you a few squares of fabric...would 5x5" work? also boy or girl?

If you are doing 5 inch squares and want some veggies and fruit Missouri Star Quilt Company has a farmers market charm pack with two of each....fussy cutting is not an issue with apples, oranges and strawberries, etc. I made one for my DGGD to share at day care and the backing is bunches of carrots (guess who's favorite ) It is adorable when she very seriously says "My Great Grandmommie luvs carrots". I recommend the two of each because it is extra fun.

What a collection of fantastic I spy quilts. Thank you all for sharing and for making this thread, I've had a wonderful time looking at them all and one cute boy.
