Floral Irish Chain With A Modern Twist
 
3 Attachment(s)
I just finished this quilt for my SIL's 73rd birthday. She loves flowers, so hope she likes it. I pieced the back too. I think one of the hardest parts of this one was finding the same floral fabrics with white and black backgrounds.

What a beautiful quilt. If I ever find the same floral in two colours, I know exactly what I will make! Your SIL is a very lucky woman.

Love your twist on this Irish Chain. It is a beautiful quilt and I bet she will totally thrilled with it!!

fivepaws 08-29-2014 07:34 AM

Perfect choice of fabrics. How do you get you 'fabric sense'? I just do not think of fascinating combinations. Beautiful.

AngeliaNR 08-29-2014 08:12 AM

That's lovely, Jeanne. As someone elsewhere, if I happen on identical florals with different background colors, now I know what to do!

Pollytink 08-29-2014 09:30 AM

Your quilt is SO beautiful!!! Have you posted about it before? It looks familiar and I thought I'd saved it but can't find it now....will be sure to save these pics!!

ekuw 08-29-2014 09:39 AM

Wow! Really nice...an Irish Chain is pretty high on my "next quilt to make" list, but I was this looks harder than a traditional one.

scrapngmom 08-29-2014 05:36 PM

Beautiful quilt. I love the fabrics and I know your SIL will too.

stitchingcrazy 08-29-2014 09:42 PM

It's nice to see a variation on a traditional design. It's beautiful and I will stand in line for it but I know your SIL will adore it.
