What was your inspiration?

my sister and brother in law's 35th wedding anniversary, he's very much into his Irish heritage, my sister, loves the yellowy greens, i was lucky enough to find fabrics that worked to please both of them!! this is a favorite pattern of mine, it's my next project for my daughter & son in law's 10th anniversary...

What are you most proud of?

that i found those yellowy greens in a celtic fabric and that wonderful backing fabric- my husband loves to look on the backs of quilts to check out the quilting, this one turned out well, i have been collectin irish templates to use when i do this pattern!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

this book makes it super easy to make this quilt!!

This is Beautiful. I really like the shades of green that you chose for this quilt. The patterns that you applied for the quilting are tip top. Another treasure from you. Thank you for sharing your wonderful works.

thank you! the yellow greens are my sister Jude's absolute favorite, i was lucky to find a irish print with that color way, then added the others, right now im cutting out a double irish chain for my daughter's anniversary in the other direction of greens, her bedroom is sea foam green, not easy to find something that cool green, but i think i managed!
