My first-ever I-spy quilt! |
When I made this one, I was a fairly new quilter. I did some swaps and got a bunch of fabric of questionable quality (that was before I found the ISpyQuilts group on yahoo--they only swap quilt shop quality fabrics). Since I was a new-ish quilter, I wasn't super experienced at weeding out cheap fabric by feel...so I'm hoping all the fabric I included will stand the test of time. But if not, oh well....I'll enjoy it while it lasts!
In planning this quilt, I looked at a bunch of pictures of I-spy quilts online, found a style I liked, and set to work. It went together pretty easily. My cute sister quilted it for me on her long-arm machine.
Honestly, the backing/binding is what makes this quilt for me. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this fabric (and if anybody knows what it's called and where I can buy more of it, please let me know).
Hope you're all enjoying the festival!
Lovely work!! 😘 Your I-spy quilt skills are the best!
