My goodness. You are talented. Both patterns are really nicely done with great fabric choices. :thumbup:

Bevanger 01-13-2010 07:54 AM

That is GORGEOUS!

The TIC is so soothing and relaxing...almost elegant. Very nice, Karla.

The Kayak turned out wonderful. Such lovely colors.

Can't wait to see the finished products.

The Triple Irish Chain is just stunning. I really want to tackle one, but the thought of matching that many seams gives me the shivers. You did such a beautiful job on that. Tell me, did you match seams and hope for the best or pin each and every one?

I could never get tired looking at the kayaking quilt. It's totally amazing to me.

joeyoz 01-13-2010 08:43 AM

It's beautiful. :D :D :D

Please make one for me ;-) :thumbup: :thumbup:

I've been wondering about this quilt! It turned out great. Can't wait to see it once you get it quilted.

Tell me, did you match seams and hope for the best or pin each and every one?
I pinned each and everyone. :wink: It's not perfect--but good enough!

You are all so kind to reply.

Debbie1 01-13-2010 09:24 AM

It turned out so pretty. The colors are very calming!

mytwopals 01-13-2010 09:56 AM

Very pretty. You did a wonderful job on both. :thumbup:

Pineapple Princess 01-13-2010 10:02 AM

Both of your quilt are absolutely beautiful!

cindyg 01-13-2010 10:05 AM

Your quilts are gorgeous. You must like blue and green.

cumberlandquiltchick 01-13-2010 10:17 AM

You really have an eye for choosing fabrics! Couldn't have been better choices! BEAUTIFUL!

missbehavin 01-13-2010 04:49 PM

I love both of them also... Great job.. colors are lovely..

Rachelcb80 01-13-2010 04:55 PM

Oh wowee-zowee! Those are both gorgeous! I love that first one. The colors are so beautiful and it all just flows together. Very lovely! Make sure and share pictures after it's all put together.

AkAngel 01-13-2010 05:38 PM

I think they are both awesome. Triple Irish has been on my list of quilts to make for a long time. I really like how soothing this quilt looks.

That is pretty and I love your colors!

gaigai 01-13-2010 05:54 PM

Karla, what is the name of the focus fabric? Who is it by? Once I get some of my other financial obligations out of the way :P :P :thumbup: I may have to look for some! :mrgreen:


Oops, I just found it! By Red Rooster!!!

Mousie 01-13-2010 06:08 PM

that's a blue and an irish chain lovers dream. I love the backing fabric too. :D

I just went back to see the kayaking quilt again.
scrumptious! :wink:

barnbum 01-13-2010 06:10 PM

gaigai--yes! It's called "Whispers" but it comes in different hues. I have another one--more turquoise--but I like this one the best.

Get some!! (Well, after your other financial issues are out of the way, of course. :wink: )

Oh--and to the reply about colors--my favorite color was blue for years, but in the past few years it switched to green. I can't keep away from them. :oops:

OH!! The quilter will put some big leaves on this one--without the veins so it's not too stiff. I like space between the quilting. Thread color is a light green--it's called sea green. The Kayaking quilt will be done in unsymmetrical swirls--hard to describe. Thread is green crystal.

bluebird 01-13-2010 06:38 PM

Wish I had your eye for color :mrgreen: Both quilts are wonderful, great job. :-D

Janstar 01-13-2010 07:11 PM

That's probably the prettiest quilt Iv'e seen for awhile Karla! It's the soothing colors!! Your kayaking one is awesome too! Great job!!

Marcia 01-13-2010 07:47 PM

Two stunning masterpieces!!! I love them both and cannot wait to see them quilted. I am so glad that you are keeping the TIC for yourself. Mark has his CW quilt and now this one can be all yours!!!! You deserve it!

Sheila Elaine 01-13-2010 07:49 PM

Wow! I like the soft spring colors & the Irish chain is one of my favorites.

I can't wait to see them both finished! And I'll make an announcement on the other thread after I get back from the post office on Friday! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

P.S. I've already found the Whispers fabric on ebay from sewcreative and bookmarked it!

But, but, this will be my third lap top for me..third! There's another soothing one, then Sunny Day. Walk Through the Park may go to my son and his fiancé', the Black and White Splash will be saved for grandchildren, Kayak goes to my daughter. So many quilts!! :-D I need to stop making them! Nah. :wink: I will be making doll blankets and baby quilts for a while now. They sell well.

Moncia 01-14-2010 02:41 AM

BEAUTIFUL!! :thumbup:

So what? There's no such thing as too many quilts, is there?

Kara 01-14-2010 04:41 AM

Love Love Love it!!! :D

Lizzydripping 01-14-2010 07:57 AM

Absolutely beautiful

weezie 01-14-2010 08:01 AM

They're lovely! I especially like the TIC.

Jingle 01-14-2010 08:36 AM

Absolutely Beautiful !!! I like the triple irish chain the best. I made one like that with different colors.

Harmony 01-14-2010 08:57 AM

Gorgeous! The colors are so soft and relaxing, and I love your backing fabric. Lap quilts are great, but I think bigger is better--I lilke it to cover me from my neck to my toes!

vicki reno 01-14-2010 09:12 AM

I have always loved irish chain quilts and yours is no exception. It is stunning, beautiful--need more adjectives to tell you how pretty I think it is. Then there is the envy part--I want it or one just like it. Great ob :thumbup:

Greendragon6889 01-14-2010 10:21 AM

I think you made a perfect choice for the backing. It's beautiful.

hapytlk 01-14-2010 10:32 AM

STUNNING! I love the colors!

Calico Grammy 01-14-2010 01:12 PM

Very very nice! Irish Chain has always been one of my favorites~~~yours is VERY pretty!
