Tangled Irish Chain 41, 42 from Virtual Quilter

Interesting design, but it could use some fabric modifications.

Second design is much better, but could be better still … more play time needed in this project file.

Burgoyne Tangled with Irish 1, 2 from Virtual Quilter

This project file is Burgoyne Surrounded by Irish recoloured. Much prettier than the original!

The mixture of shapes is still interesting, and much more suitable for the lady of the house.

An Irish Gardener’s Double Chain 5, 6 from Virtual Quilter

I have had a lot of fun using traditional quilt blocks in ways that are not traditional, including Irish Chains.

Love both these designs, but I think there are a lot of applique blocks which would work better than those I am using in this project file.

Tangled Irish Chain Apps 17, 18 from Virtual Quilter

More Irish tangles, with both applique and quilting included. The pieced blocks are easy, the applique is only a small portion of the quilt.

Love the first …

…. and the second!

Pink and dark grey is an unusual combination, but I like that it makes pink a bit more masculine than usual.

Pink and lighter grey is a much more likable combination for ladies.

An Irish Gardener’s Double Chain 1, 2 from Virtual Quilter

Irish Chain blocks leave space for some quilting or applique, and I started playing a few days ago. It is not the first time I have played, but this time I have also decided I should make full use of the motifs layer in Electric Quilt.

The applique block designs I wanted to use I have changed to Motifs, or applique with no background fabric, and also saved a variety of basic straight settings with all three layers, and plan to add more as it is a great time saver to have them ready to use.

There are two options ...

Interesting. Not my colours, too much piecing, but I really like it!

Like this one more than the first.

Still like the middle one best.

Amazing what can happen when you mix up Single Irish Chain, Double irish Chain and Triple Irish Chain blocks!

Mid Summer Quilt Finish from Gray Barn Designs

We interrupt our Christmas in July/August paper piecing project to present a palette-cleansing scrappy, double Irish chain, low-volume quilt finish.

Cindy and I were estate sale shopping last year (or the year before — is your concept of time messed up too????) and I stumbled on an old quilt in need of some love. The quilt was in pretty rough shape, but it just called to me. I bought it for the tag price of $5 because I loved the uniform bold blue squares and the clever quilting. I mention the quilting because what looks like many small white pieces ...

Single, Double and Triple Irish Chain blocks all mixed up … and I like the results.

Still liking it.

Still liking it even though there are no Double Irish Chain blocks in the last design.
