In the past I have purchased stripes for the same reason and have quite a collection; however, I really do prefer bias binding on my quilts so I have stopped purchasing them. Still fun to look at though.<br /><br />It will be fun to see what you do with your I-Spy fabrics and how you make your quilt(s). I am sure it will not be an ordinary quilt. :)<br /><br />JudyOne Minnesota Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14324481663679002621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-20341397545235656172012-10-04T10:56:37.668-05:002012-10-04T10:56:37.668-05:00Those stripes are fabulous!

Sometimes, they are difficult to use up. <br /><br />BTW, I am using some of my stripes on that zig-zag pattern you had posted a couple weeks ago.
