Is this one considered a chain? It looks like it to me - the only difference is the 'snowball' instead of solid squares...
I call this one "After the Rain" because it looks like swirly orange Alabama clay!

Believe it or not, this is an Irish Chain quilt - Traditional pattern, very NON-traditional fabrics (batiks). My friend's daughter made the quilt, and did a wonderful job. She wanted an oriental feeling to the quilting, so I quilted it with bamboo through the "chains", and scaled fish swimming around the border and in the centers. She won the Judge's Choice ribbon at our county fair.

I have actually done two. I believe they are both single Irish Chains. I love them! The first one was for my brother when he got married. I embroidered their names and date in the center. The second one was for an auction for my dad's Lion's club fund raiser. I wanted to keep the second one so bad. I loved the colors together!
