It's been years since I've made a quilt with so few fabrics, and I love the simplicity of the look. I love not having to think about what color to add next. I LOVE these fabrics. The center--called Whispers, was one I saw in my favorite Mennonite shop and for two trips didn't get it because I didn't know what I'd do with it. I finally bought it, along with two coordinating Moda marbles, and searched for a pattern where it wouldn't be cut up too much. There are very few color choices to match, so I decided between a double or triple; Kennedy said a double would be too boring :roll: so a third color was needed. We found a perfect light to use at the same shop.

This is 20 out of a needed 60 some squares... but now I'm headed back to Kayaking on the Lake... :D

Hi Barnbum,

I love your triple irish chain, it is on my list. Great job.

Andie

Very peaceful and soothing!

This is going to be a prize winner. :thumbup:

Simply BEAUTIFUL.. but we have come to expect no less than that from you!

I know!! I almost needed a nap while working with the fabrics! :D

I was ecstatic the seams lined up so nicely... every intersection was pinned and it paid off.

Very pretty. Nice calming colors. I can't wait to see it finished. It will be beautiful as usual. I'm just trying to gear myself up to do a Double Irish Chain. I at least read the directions today, at least that is the first step....

Very beautiful soothing quilt! Love the fabrics. :lol:

love the blocks. and the color choices are wonderful. the up close pictures do the fabric great justice. guess i need to add Irish chain to my list of 'need-to-do's'!!!

I love it! The colors are beautiful together.

Such soft beautiful fabrics!!! They blend but also stand up on their own, what a gorgeous combination :D :D :D

It's beautiful. So soft looking!!!

Absolutely gorgeous! What a fresh, pretty, "spring-like" look!

Jan

Awesome! The colors are so soothing. I guess I am going to have to put a triple on my list of "to do".

Karla, it's beautiful! I love that middle fabric!
<note to self....when visiting Karla, distract her so can snatch quilt>lol

Lovely!

Its beautiful !!!
Very nice sheme of colors.....
Great job and good thinking :lol:

This pattern is on my list also.....unless you want to send this one to me since I just love the colors also.

Thanks for the warning, Terri! I'll hide it. To be honest--I think I like this one better than the watercolor floral log cabin! Maybe I'll sell that one--keep this one. :wink:

That's always where I start--and reread and reread... :lol:

I love your Irish Chain. It is one of my favorite patterns. That fabric is awesome. I can see why you didn't want to cut it up too much. It is so pretty.

What nice restful colors! Any Irish Chain is among my favorites, and yours is spectabular! Can't wait to see the finished product!

Looks like you have made a very good start. Love the soft colors.

Have fun kayaking.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL ! Love the colors :lol:

I love your quilt, too. The fabrics are spectacular. Can't want to see it completed. It is going to be wonderful.

You are going to be REALLY busy keeping an eye on both quilts AND Rosie! lol

Your quilts are always so beautiful and this is no exception. I can't wait until it's finished (and the KOTL).
Thanks for sharing your progress.

Tranquil and serene. Beautiful color combinations to set off the simple beauty of a TIC pattern. Love seeing your work, thanks for sharing.

Very pretty! I love the fabric you selected!

ooooooooooh what soft colours you chose for this quilt!! It is just stunning!

oooooooooo pretty. I love it

One of my favorite patterns. I love the colors!!
Has a touch of spring in it!! :thumbup:

I love your soft and sweetness of this quilt. You ahve done a wonderful job on it.

It is a nice quilt pattern and fairly easy to do. (compared to what you have done recently, that is) It is going to be a nice summer quilt.

So lovely ..That settles it! One of my next quilts is going to be a triple chain - hopefully I can do half as wonderful a job.

Very pretty. Can't wait to see it finished.
