Here is the quilt I made for my boss's new son. It is made using the technique for the 10 minute block, except that I put the window in each intersection using a black & white wavy stripe.

Looks like a snowball pattern.

Yes, it does. Except that the edges of the black & white stripe in the corners is a fold and all one piece instead of triangles.
I had to keep adding to the whole quilt top to get the effect.

How nice ... your borders really frame up the I Spy mixture of fabrics well.


Love the pinstripes!!
I like how you have switched the directions and I totally commend you for that. I'm sure I would have gone batty trying to keep the stripes going in the right directions at each step!

I love it! One little boy will be so happy with this. My grandson will have to have one like this.
