These three are all I Spy quilts that I made for 3 of my nephews for Christmas. Each quilt is made up of 4" novelty fabric blocks. Each quilt used 114 completely different squares. Within each quilt there are no duplicates. The fabrics have so many fun things in them-everything from bees to cars to apples! I participated in 3 fabric swaps to collect so many different squares and I had over 600 squares to choose from when I put each quilt together. The fun part is that in addition to being a snuggly quilt, it is also a game! I included a label on each with a list of things to find on the quilt. 
My nephew Lil B and I also had a fun time finding an object on the quilt and then challenging the other to find it. I know I had a lot of fun making the quilts and I hope that my nephews enjoy them.We spend Christmas at my Mom and Dad's house this year and with all my brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews there it was a full house! But despite (or maybe because of) the tight quarters we had a great time. All the cousins have such a great time together. Wish we lived closer together but I do feel fortunate that we usually get most everyone together at last once a year. Well, I guess I better get off the computer and get to making dinner. Until next time...
