I Spy Swap Basics

I'm hosting an online I Spy Swap!

Here are the basic details...

You will need 3 different fabrics - 1 yard of each.

Machine wash and dry fabrics.

Press.

With fabric folded and selvage edges even,

trim off the selvage edge and cut into rows 5" each.

Measure 5" in the opposite direction and cut fabric to make a 5" square.
Be careful to maximize the design on your fabric.
Cut 40 squares of each of the three fabrics. 

This fabric features teddy bears. Notice the size of

the bears. They will still be intact after the seems of

a quilt are sewn. I also like this fabric because

it has other objects in in.

My second choice was this fabric with sewing machines.

How fun is this? There are also smaller objects like

spools of thread, scissors, and pin cushions. Fun!

My third choice has insects...and worms!

After you have cut 40 squares of each fabric

simply place them in a small plastic bag.

Inside one of the plastic bags include YOUR name and

address in case the package gets lost in shipping.

 (Let's cross our fingers on that not happening...)

Place the 3 packages of fabric into a large envelope

which includes

*an additional envelope with

with your name, address, and prepaid return postage.

Once I receive all the fabrics I will "swap" them and

return 120 different squares to you.

You should have enough squares to make several

interesting children's quilts.

If you would like to join the swap, here is the post to sign up.

Finally, be sure to grab the I Spy Swap

May you always Sew in Peace!
