I want to make an Irish Chain soon. I'd love for everyone to post ones they've made here. :thumbup: 8) Would you tell me if it's single, double, or triple when you do? :wink:
I can't post a photo... I don't have one (yet). |

They 'can' be easy. I have the booklet "Time for a Chain" by Nancy J Smith & Lynda S Milligan. It was very, very helpful with pressing directions and peicing info. This was my first Irish chain.
Here is the TRIPLE that I did a few years ago. King size for my sister. King size Triple Irish Chain [ATTACH=CONFIG]23853[/ATTACH] |
grammy that is just beautiful! It sucks you in the way only a quilt can! :) Karla, don't forget about that beautiful Chain Terri did with the cardinal fabric. Let me see if I can find it. :)

Oh gosh I love them!! I think my confidence is having seams match is stronger due to my new machine.
grammy--that is some quilt!! I love your color choices. :D Terri's is a single and it's all based on how many fabrics are in the pieced square? |
Here's the link to my first (and only so far) single chain.

This thread has a picture of my double irish chain I made several years ago. It isn't hard to do at all. |

here is my one and only irish chain. i used the eleanor burns book. IRISH CHAIN IN A DAY. easy instructions for single double and triple. good luck. can't wait to see yours. |
This was done the 'hard' way... by hand...
people want to know if 'hand quilting' is dead or whatever... I say, "been there, done that, got the t-shirt, - put it in a quilt".... I have soooo much more fun doing stuff the 'easy' way and on the machines now.... [img]http://usera.ImageCave.com/Mavican/Q...oubleirish.jpg[/img] |
