I decided to dive right in and start cutting the I Spy quilt kits. Each fabric has to be spritzed with water and pressed to get out the fold marks from storing the fabric folded and stacked on shelves. The pressing takes as long as the cutting. I have 37 fabrics cut so far. 3/4 of the kits are spoken for already so I hope to finalize the number of pieces in the kits by Tuesday night. There are bug prints in the kits. The kids love them. There are grasshoppers, dragonflies, butterflies, ants, and prints with lots of different kinds of bugs on them. Cutting the fabrics brings back the memories of being the buyer for the quilt shop. We had a reputation of having lots of kids prints for the I Spy quilts and floral fabrics for Colorwash Trip Around the World quilts. I left that store 12 years ago and selections have changed. In case you are reading this at a later date than when it was published, all kits have been spoken for.Cutting kits.........
