I think JennyPenny's is as close as it gets! I know it was here but never could find it. I think I've figured out how to do it using the interlocking chains pattern from F&P that I got from a sweetie here on the board. It has to blocks because the links are long but if I use just one of the blocks I think it will work, we'll find out tomorrow.
thank you girls for all your help. it is always much appreciated
