Yesterday i pieced my I Spy 4 patches into a top. my friend, Brenda, had an I Spy like this for show and tell at class and i really liked it....so i stole her idea. thanks, Brenda. LOL
I have been cutting up fabrics for I Spy quilts. just stacking up the blocks until i get an idea of how to set them. this seems to be a good use of fabrics that wouldn't otherwise get used.
There are some baseball and football squares...and a basketball border.
There are cowboys and candy
Sports teams and houses
Love this iguana...or lizard...whatever he is. i had a piece of fabric that was about a yard that i was saving for 'something special'. hahahha every once in a while i cut a bit of it ... until there was hardly anything left for 'something special'. so now it is I Spy blocks.
Some cats and baseballs. and dog bones and penguins
And my favorite puppy. that fabric is about all gone. i love those little dogs
The basketball border came from my truckload of fabrics that i acquired. the man said his wife made pj pants for the grandsons out of this ... but i don't know. it is a thicker cotton fabric ... almost an upholstery weight. perhaps they were winter pjs.
I like this I Spy top a lot. now i have to come up with another design for I Spy. gotta think on that .... do you have an idea for me?
Let me know
