Leftovers Scrappy: Browns/reds/greens chain quilt

I recently made a couple of quilts in these colors and had a bunch of 2.5" squares leftover in these colors. So, I decided to use them

Someone else had made this quilt here on this board, I think, and I liked it.

This one is queen sized top only so far, using 2.5"squares and for the chain, 1.5" squares.

I like it too. This is a dramatic use of scraps I a fine quilt. Restful but not boring.

Oooohhhh, love this one! What a great use of scraps. The colors work so well together.

Awesome quilt!!!!!
It looks like an Irish chain pattern. Do you think I could use that pattern as I do have one in my collection of patterns?

Well, those chains are just a 4 patch of white and browns/greens/reds and placed to make the chain. I didn't have a pattern...just a picture.

That is a beautiful quilt. Really like how the light squares catch your eye gives it movement and unifies all those colors.

Good question. I just copied a pic that someone else from QB posted a while ago (I think) and printed it out and used that as my pattern. For this one, I used 2.5" squares and for the 4 patches, 1.5" squares. Otherwise, just follow the pattern.

Here is what I did: I laid it out in EQ for anyone interested.

Good question! Last year I did a couple! :D

Actually...hanging head in shame...of the 104 quilts I finished last year, only 3 used primarily HST! Nr. 4, 96, and 97. :( Very, very bad. Sigh.
