Google - http://www.generations-quilt-pattern...t-pattern.html. Books are lovely to look at but the internet is free.

Also, check out Happy Quilting (http://happyquiltingmelissa.bigcartel.com/) Melissa Corry wrote a book with a lot of Irish Chain patterns. We had her at our club and it was fun.

The other place I would suggest is an on line place called quilter's cache. (quilter'scache.com) It has tons of free block patterns all free for the downloading. And again , I am sure they have that pattern there in a few sizes.

Check out the library too. I have checked out many a book to make a quilt.

I get most of my quilt books from "alibris.com". Not affiliated, just a satisfied customer, most books I buy are $5-$10 with postage. Check them first because they are often cheaper than Amazon. That is where I have bought most of my Eleanor Burns patterns (except the one from my LQS, "Orion's Star" and the video).

I think Paint Me Judy(?) had us make an Irish Chain, or double Irish Chain, in 2012. All her instructions should be on here if you can go back to 2012. I really enjoyed doing it, and was thrilled with the way it turned out.
