More I Spy Fun

If the one huge I Spy quilt wasn't enough, I decided to make four more for Christmas gifts - two for family members, and two for my cousin to give his friends as gifts. Here they are...

First up...a variation on the stacked coins idea. I really like this one. Clean lines and fun, fun, fun prints!

Here's the back. This was the first time I've ever pieced together a backing. I really love the way it looks.

This one is a four patch. I sewed the four patches together with one solid square per block (always in the same spot). When we were deciding how to arrange them, this cool diagonal appeared. Serendipity!

Here is the back. I love piecing the backs together so you can use the most of your scraps!!

Here is the first one for my cousin. This one is also a four patch (one solid square in the same place in each block). I arranged them a little differently and came up with this sort of checkerboard.

Here's the second one for my cousin. This one is the four patch arranged with the diagonal pattern just like the second one above.

I bought a twin sheet set on clearance and use that for the backing on these quilts. It's so fun and colorful! I just love them.

Five quilts in five months...that was a little crazy!

September Quilt COMPLETED!!

I was finally able to take some photos of my finished I Spy quilt today. Hooray! Check it out...

I think I'll have to set up a clothesline to take some better pictures...or maybe we'll have to build a barn. I always love quilt pictures in front of barns. I'm sure Jason will go for that!

I finally decided on no sashing between 9 patches. Then I put a 4 inch border on and another row of I Spy and solid blocks around the edge. Then 2 more borders. I really LOVE the way it turned out!

I have lots of favorite fabrics, but was really excited when a friend brought back the BYU fabric from Utah.

I decided to get creative on the longarm and quilt our name into the border. It's so cute even if penmanship was always my lowest grade.

And the whole reason we all put it together...so these two boys with crazy hair and pajamas could spy a world of things.

Thank you so much for helping me with the blocks! Do you spy your blocks in the picture, hehe?!
