WIP irish chain
 

Last year i fell in love with Connecting Thread's Neutral love line. I order some to make a queen size quilt for my bed. I procrastinated for a year. Today I finally put the HST and 4 patches together in 12 1/2 in blocks. Still need to sew them together and add borders. I'm a litttle intimidated at the thought of sandwiching and quilting such a large quilt. (My first queen size.)

Beautiful -- what a great use of neutrals!

Awesome job!

great job , by looking at what you've accomplished already , you'll do great with the rest of the steps ahead to complete your quilt , just take your time on it , it beautiful.

OH, how pretty!!

Ugh. Not sure why I put Irish chain on the topic when I knew it was a Jacob ladder. Overly tired last night I guess.

Not sure why I said it was an Irish chain. Blaming it on being tired last night. It's a Jacobs ladder pattern. Not sure how to correct the title.

Well, it sure is pretty whichever name it is going by.

.. the alternate squares in the blocks do line up to a Irish Chain effect but it is pretty whatever you call it.:)

Lovely quilt; love the fabrics, colors used and the pattern.

Love the colors and the pattern. Can't wait to see it quilted.

Beautiful and love the fabric collection!

just leave it on the floor and enjoy it awhile. You could quilt it as you go in sections. I think it's Marti Mitchel that has a book out called Machine quilting in Sections. Two or three sections would be easier to handle.

Wow!! Your quilt is stunning!! Love those fabrics.

Lovely choice of pattern and fabrics. Sure would look good in my living room.

I love that. The pattern is great and so are the colors. Good job.

Beautiful quilt.
peace

very pretty like the color!!

love those colors and the quilt looks great.

Oh I love the colors. Great job.

Very pretty

There's several ways you can quilt it in sections. It depends on your preference which one you use. I do it a lot, because unless it is a gift, the cost of the long arm is too expensive for me. I realize they do a fabulous job, but I could not afford to pay for every quilt I make. Try it. It works well.

Love the fabrics and the pattern! It turned out great. Don't be intimidated. Just jump right in there!

Love it. Great Colors!

Love the fabric and you did a great job!

It is beautiful but to me it looks like a Jacob's Ladder and Irish Chain to me too. lol

It sure looks lovely! I could just dive into all of that richness.
