    I was wondering if there would be any interest in an I Spy Charm Square swap? If we could get 30-40 participants, we'd have quite a few different prints (90 or 120) to use in I Spy quilts or other projects.

    Here are some rough details.

    Purchase (or raid your stash) three different I Spy fabrics (a yard should do it depending on how many participants we have). Cut 40 (forty) 5 inch squares out of each of the three different fabrics. The 40 is just if we have 40 participants. If we have 30 swappers, you would cut 30 squares.

    You will mail the squares to me and include an envelope with stamps on it to be mailed back to you. I'll sort all the squares and send them back to you. If you are overseas, I can accept PayPal payments for return postage.

    If you think you would be interested can you respond to this thread or PM me?

    I Spy fabric is a novelty print with an all over design of something graphic. Like foods, animals, objects, etc. I Spy quilts are popular for babies and children as they can point out (or find) specific items.

    Some prints that come to mind: strawberries, cherries, cats, dogs, zoo animals, noodles (yep, I have noodle fabric!), shoes, cupcakes, etc.

    Can anyone else elaborate on novelty prints?
