    Default I Spy With My Little Eye

    This I Spy quilt was years in collecting fabric and has over 80 unique blocks. Thank goodness I still had a grandchild the right age to receive it by the time I finished. The border was a new technique for me and I am delighted with the way it turned out.

    I can't blame you for being delighted, it is a delightful quilt. My husband and I both like mixed scrappy quilts. They have a 'vintage' look to them and comfy feeling. You're right the borders are a nice addition. Your grandchild will love it!

    That is a beautiful quilt! I love your smaller squares on point for the border. Well done, the lucky grandchild will love it!

    Wonderful I Spy quilt Barbara. That is quite a collection of fun blocks finished off with a cool border. Congratulations on your finish.

    What a wonderful "I Spy" quilt! And your border really sets it off! Loved your comment about being relieved you finished while you still had a grandchild young enough to enjoy it!
