My first quilt was a single Irish chain. I think I like it the best. I'll take it off son's bed and take a pic. I've made several baby quilts too.

They are quick and easy and cute! I have one that's a king size waiting to be sandwiched and quilted that I made ages ago, just waiting for some batting I ordered to finish this UFO.

Grammy Dwynn,

I saw your amazing quilt at the Coburg Quilt Show, didn't I?

I love it and remember it got me thinking about Irish Chains for the first time.

Thank You for sharing your beautiful and inspiring quilt!

julieah, (your neighbor to the north) :-)

P.S. Great thread! I love seeing everyone's work. :lol:

Karla, were you talking to me about applique? No applique here, i'm terrified of it lol. My roses hearts and diamonds were all paper-pieced in the alternate squares. :) Wow, so many gorgeous quilts here, makes me want to do another chain too lol

Single IC blocks, or 9 patch blocks are so fun to swap. I'd love to make another one. My ex-husband took the quilt I posted and won't give it back so the picture is all that's left for me to remember it by.

Here is my Irish Chain top. I still don't have it quilted yet. It's a single chain, made using EB book. Very easy and goes very fast. This is a twin size.
