Thread: Irish Chain instructions with ONLY TWO colors

I would like to make a "Double Irish Chain" in a queen size but using two colors (red and White) Most have 3 colors including Eleanor Burns quilt in a day. Thanks for any help you can give me Enjoy your day, peterparley

Just substitute the red for the 3rd color, for the fabric requirement and for the placements. You will find it an easy fix :D:D:D

I've never done one personally, but it seems like to get the effect you will need two values of your red for a double Irish chain. Or maybe somebody has done one with only two colors. I'll be watching this thread..

thanks for the link

My Eleanor Burns book has both single and double Irish chain. Now let me see...Check your PM's. I will leave one for you. :thumbup:

Have made several Irish Chains, always with only 2 colours

Thanks so much for the link. I have found it very informative. I want to go right into my sewing room and start one now. Oh, wait!! I am in my sewing room LOL
