Musical Single Irish Chain
 
2 Attachment(s)
I finished a single irish chain for the choir director at church. We gave it to her thurs nite. I tried to get closeups for the stitching, but it didn't come out well at all :( Choir Director was very surprised - even shed a few tears! Thanks for looking! Oh - and can't forget one of the local quilt inspectors - that is Lady Grace.

What a beautiful quilt. I've always wanted to do one of these and now more than ever. Thanks for sharing.

Really pretty! I have wanted to do one of these also... Your picture is an inspiration for me to stop "talking" and start cutting!

Very beautiful quilt.

If you put your mouse over a tiny picture and jpg comes up, just click on it and it enlarges. Then I use the back arrow at the top of the computer to go back. Very nice quilt, quilting and quilt inspector. I really like that sheet music fabric you used.

When you double click on it, it gets bigger. However, I posted some yesterday and that didn't work. I had a terrible time even getting it to upload and then......

I've never had my pictures show up here so small. And yes - Lady Grace very much has the attitude to go w/ her name!!

I love your quilt - Irish chain is such a timeless, beautiful pattern. As far as posting pictures, things have been weird lately. What used to work doesn't seem to work anymore, some of the older posts that used to have big pictures now have small ones - I think someone has been up to no good in admin land. LOL

Great quilt and appropriate fabric for your choir director. I can see why she shed a few tears. Very thoughtful gift. I love your fabric and color choices. Thanks for sharing.

For some reason, all the pictures seem to be little. Click on it & it'll grow.

The colors are just fabulous! No wonder your Choir Director got a tad chocked up... what a thoughtful, wonderful gift! And looks like your helper agrees... LOL!

I tried to this. I don't have a jpg come up to click on that I know of. I can't figure it out.

It's beautiful. and a great gift. You can't go wrong with the classic Irish Chain. And your border is great too. I'm sure your Choir Director will feel very loved, evey time she looks at this lovely gift.
