    Default Irish Chain

    Last year I started a new quilt for a friend. I got so behind because I found I had to have oral surgery, and it takes about six months to heal. It has been a long haul and sometimes I had to pause because I got too busy to spend much time sewing. Anyway, here is my quilt finally pieced together and ready to be backed. It is the pink Irish Chain quilt and many people helped me decide which shades to use that would not look too "little girlish". I am grateful and have been wanting to post these for awhile now.

    The pictures are in my Album Pink Irish Chain Fabric. I had a really hard time trying to get them posted here.
    I hope you will let me know what you think.

    Thank you. It took a lot longer than I thought, but I am pretty happy with it. I just wanted to avoid it looking like it should be in a child's room. At first I picked out a border that was too "candy pink" but eventually found the more subtle fabric and went with it. I appreciate your input.

    Thank you for posting that. I had no luck trying to post a picture here, so put it in my Album.
    Also, I appreciate your compliment and am glad you like it.
