I Spy....the July Pay It Forward giveaway!

Thanks to everyone who entered, this giveaway is now closed! Stop back in August for another Pay It Forward giveaway.

Did I ever mention that I hate odd shaped fabric scraps? I cut all of my scraps into 5" squares. Anything smaller than that is put in a bag, which I usually pass along to a scrap-loving friend.
For the July giveaway, I sorted through my scrap charms and chose 2 sets of 25 charm squares. I focused on pieces that would work well for an I Spy quilt:
The two sets are identical, and I tried to chose an equal amount of boy and girl prints. Keep one and share one with a friend!
To enter the giveaway, just leave me a comment! I will leave comments open until Thursday, July 7th. Winner will be announced on Friday, July 8th!
International peeps are welcome to enter!

Love the look of the fabrics! I need to make my son an I spy quilt! :D

Fun scraps! I have commitment issues with cutting scraps to standard sizes -- I want to leave them as big as possible so they'll be available for whatever future project I have. But your way is definitely more organized.

These would be so fabulous to win! I don't have many novelty types of fabric and have been wanting to make a baby quilt using scraps just like these. And, being a newish quilter, I'm pretty shy on stash let along scraps.

Thanks for the opportunity!

How neat that you take the time to charm-ify your scraps. :D This is such a nice giveaway; thanks for the chance to win!

Impressive. I cut my scraps into 5", 4", 3" and then 2" squares. Then I toss the rest in the scrap bin and do crazypatch with it. I have a bunch of squares for I spy quilts but they are becoming the leftovers rather than the ones I really want to use. It would be great to add some new ones to the mix.
