This little quilt was made using all the squares that were
left after piecing a full-sized Double Irish Chain quilt in yellow and
blues. I have yet to quilt the Double
Irish Chain.

The ‘Daisies Galore’ pantograph by Irene Steele is a great
match for the little yellow quilt.

I was planning to quilt the Double Irish Chain and sell the
two as a set, however a friend wanted a baby quilt for a gift and this Yellow
Daisy Baby quilt was it!
This is one of the first quilts that I quilted when I bought
my Millennium long-arm quilting machine. When I showed it to my friend Terry she
started bringing me quilts, thank goodness, it was the push I needed, as up
until then I kept telling everyone “I’m still practicing.”
I've always considered myself to be just average talent
and what I have is a ridiculous insane obsessiveness for practice and
preparation. ~ Will Smith
Oh that Irish chain is simply lovely--so soft. And great idea to use the leftovers for another--it really works for both patterns so well...nice work...hugs, julierose
ReplyDeleteThanks Julierose, I need to think about finishing the Irish Chain!
DeleteBoth are beautiful quilts. Great idea to use the leftovers and make a baby quilt with it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb, colours I like.
DeleteIt's darling! And I love the quilting
ReplyDeleteThanks Carla, I really liked the daisy panto with the yellow quilt.
Deleteso cute! That Daisies Galore pantos is one of my faves for baby quilts - it really quilts up nicely and looks great! Can't wait to see what you do with the Irish Chain!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Daisies Galore goes so nicely with some fabrics, definitely sweet on baby quilts.
