    I absolutely love your scrappy Irish Chain! I never thought of doing one like that before, but it is definitely on my list now! Love the colors you chose too!
    Great Job!!!

    Here is the Irish chain I did for my daughters girlfriend last summer. Her colors were black, red and white for the wedding.

    I wasn't too thrilled working with black but I found this black with white twinkling stars on it and loved it. The quilt was wrinkled from being in a box so the quilting doesn't show up well. My quilter did a large star in the white part and did a chain with stars in it in the "chain". It turned out much prettier than the pics show.

    Excuse my living room, I don't always straighten up when I;m busy quilting!!

    The Irish Chain is gorgeous. One of my favorite color combos is the red, black and white. Love the star quilting.

    They are all very beautiful and you did a great job piecing them. Quilting is beautiful also.
