25 total square=225 4" squares. The sashing is 3 inches wide. I used several different colors from my scrap bin, and placed them in rainbow order.
The colorful binding brings the colors of the quilt together. The white sashing calms the multiple fabrics down and the binding keeps it a fun quilt.
I used a full sheet for front and back. There wasn't much waste with this sheet. My MIL has requested one too--maybe another I-Spy swap needs to happen sooner than I thought :)
Great job!!! I think when I get to working on my I Spy quilts, I am going to do nine patches too...what a fun project!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect!! I am now fully convinced that white fabric -- either for sashing or borders -- really is key in keeping I-Spy quilts calm. I'm itching to start on mine!!
ReplyDeleteYou are amazing! I love the white sashing. Can't wait to start my I-Spy.
ReplyDeleteabsolutely love it! You are so amazing. And I always love how "Easy" you think things like this are. I look at that and get overwhelmed of just thinking of cutting 200+ squares!
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I haven't even started on mine yet but I am inspired now! I just am a little lost as I have never done a quilt. So I have some learning to do. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to zoom in on your quilt and try to 'spy' my contributions to this quilt! Fun!! Your quilt looks GREAT...I'm ready any time for another Swap.
