Each square is 4×4 inches once sewn, (I used a 1/4 inch seam allowance, so I had 4 1/2 inch squares to start.) Some of the fabric is flannel and some cotton, either is fine for me.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.makeandtakes.com/mini-i-spy-quilts"><div align="center"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.makeandtakes.com/img/DE98FADA-7B65-48E7-B3A3-5D5B3CD01DD7" alt="both-done-mini-i-spy-2-002.jpg" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.makeandtakes.com/mini-i-spy-quilts"><P>For the back, I used a fun flannel animal pattern.
