Cathy, you don't have to have a new set each time. For one thing, swappers change. The people in this swap are not necessarily the same ones as the last swap. Then, there are people who use duplicates. Those can be used for crafts like Lisa (Moonrise) does. There is also an I spy quilt that uses duplicates, which generally is just called a "matching game". The kid has to find the squares that match. Younger kids can use the one with exact duplicate charms. The older kids probably should have a matching game where there are, say, two dog charms or two butterfly charms, but they aren't exact duplicates. Then there are others who make donation quilts, so they can just use that charm on another quilt. Then, there are the swappers who just like to swap I spy charms. Just one more of a certain fabric won't bother them one way or another.

So, please join if you would enjoy it.

Snow skiers, vintage Valentines, vintage bunny rabbits, trains, frogs, lions and lionesses, little girls with curly pink hair, precious little mice on pink plaid (also vintage, I think), cute babies playing with toys, an owl print that I've never seen before, swans, etc. :)

What a find!

Welcome Queenbarbiej - this swap is for all I Spy fabrics. The 8 sets can be cut from a fat quarter or linear quarter of fabric. Here is a place I love that sells as small as a fat quarter - 4my3boyz

I was wondering if any of these fabrics be okay for the I spy swap. Please let me know which one(s) will not work. Thanks for any help.

Rbwiese thanks for the website suggestion. That site can make you spend, spend, spend. They have fabrics that I haven't seen.
