Here is the Irish chain I did for my daughters girlfriend last summer. Her colors were black, red and white for the wedding.
I wasn't too thrilled working with black but I found this black with white twinkling stars on it and loved it. The quilt was wrinkled from being in a box so the quilting doesn't show up well. My quilter did a large star in the white part and did a chain with stars in it in the "chain". It turned out much prettier than the pics show.
Excuse my living room, I don't always straighten up when I;m busy quilting!!
