Not your grandmother's quilt, but a nice new spin. Refreshing!

The white background is pieced as a traditional Irish Chain except I used a jelly roll of whites and added hexagons!
That is absolutely beautiful!! Your modifications make it spectacular.

Thanks for sending a really good quality image - I was able to blow it up and see all the wonderful quilting and it not look blurry! I love the white and off-whites together. Very pretty quilt.

The centers certainly add much more interest. Looks like you have done a very good job.
