I started a tradition of giving the grandchildren an I Spy Quilt on their 2nd birthday and in a few weeks, it'll be time to celebrate this little one's special day.
I've always liked the idea of I Spy quilts and I started collecting novelty fabrics about 5 years ago.
I have more than I'll EVER use, but I had so much fun choosing which ones to include in this one
I used a pattern from Missouri Star for these little mason jar blocks although I made the jar tops and sashing narrower than the pattern suggested.
I used a blue grunge for the background, a gray from my stash for the jar lids, and the same gray for the binding.
I was tickled to find this wide back plaid to put on the back
Jackie's and Sandy's quilting always brings the flimsy to life.
There are 81 different jars filled with fun things to discover and it finishes at 58" x 67"
I stitched love and prayers into every seam
One sweet finish for our precious grandson
