What a great idea! I love Irish Chains, but had never thought to use the chains as frames - thank for posting, as I missed it the first time.

We made one in green and white at our guild and embroidered a four leaf clover in the middle of the white space. Turned out real well so I am sure yours will be great also.

Irish Chain on my bucket list. It certainly appeals more to me with a focus block in the center like that. I love African animals and prints and I think I've just amended my bucket list! Wonderful job!

Nice job. I love how you personalized it. It is very pretty. I love how different it is to traditional animal print you see on the store shelves.
