    Congratulations on the finished quilt. I love I Spy quilts--they don't have to be just for kids!

    I can see why it took you so long to complete. : )

    It turned out wonderful. Not something I would have the patience for.... Thank you for sharing your photo.

I collected these in swaps, on ebay, and from quilting buddies. Knitette sent me loch ness monster fabric, some of the ladies in the guild found the most "adult" ispy fabric they could find - I have bra and underwear print, unfortunately the hunky guys were in too big a scale to use. Some remind me of things, people and places from childhood, some from college (I used printable fabric and did illustrations from my favorite books as a kid, high school and college logos, etc) and now. There is everything from cabbage patch kids to Dungeons and Dragons in there!
    I loved reading about your squares - what a wonderful way to preserve memories, each square meaningful.
