Rather than cutting each square individually, we make quick work of it with strip piecing. To begin you'll need one roll of 2 1/2" strips and 5 1/2 yards for the background along with 1 1/2 yards for the outer border. Create this quilt and you'll have the luck of the Irish with you!

I like the clear directions and good illustrations. I am using a fat quarter I purchased and cutting it into strips. I am using it for a baby quilt with a white background. I have it about half assembled. I love this technique! I made a throw using strips that is stunning.

Excited to start my quilt

I'm excited to start on the Irish Chain Quilt! I'm just waiting on fabric that is coming soon from Missouri Star. I'm thinking white on white fabric for the background and off white batiks for the 9 patch.
