Default double irish chain

I made this for my sister. The tan fabric is some of the most beautiful quilting fabric I have ever come across. It was left over from a quilt that I made for a friend of mine. The finished size is 53x63. The squares are 1 inch finished size.

thanks for looking!

What a pretty quilt that is! I love the double irish chain pattern & want to make one some day. The colors are so pretty together. Thanks for letting us see it.

I made a queen sized triple Irish chain in pink and white for my daughter when she got married, it took me two
weeks to sew the top, and 6 months to hand quilt it. I love your quilt, and the fabric is wonderful.

You did a great job with picking out your fabrics. Can't wait to see how you quilt this top.
