Irish Twist in Strawberry Lemonade by Sherri and Chelsi I have had Saint Patrick’s Day on my mind lately. In part, that is because March 17 is on the horizon and I live outside of Boston, where the holiday is a big thing. I’ve also started a second listen to the Last Seen podcast, which documents the theft of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. If you’re unfamiliar with that story, in the wee hours of March 18, 1990, and in the wake of Saint Patrick’s Day festivities, two men posing as Boston Police made their way into the museum, tied up the night guards, and stole 13 irreplaceable—and still unrecovered—works of art. It’s a fascinating story, in part because the burglary was so brazen and so easily accomplished. (You can read more about the theft here.) And the third reason I’ve been thinking about all things Irish lately is that I’ve been wanting to make another Irish Twist quilt. This design, following in the long Irish chain tradition, spotlights the space in between the chains to make a uniquely modern quilt. I’ve had an Irish Twist project in Aneela Hoey’s Sherbet Pips collection cut and ready to be sewn for months now, but there are so many awesome collections out this spring. I couldn’t help but mock up Irish Twist in a few of Moda’s latest lines. I think my favorite is the version in Strawberry Lemonade (by Sherri and Chelsi), at the top of the post. Those colors and prints are so spring-y; they have me wishing away these last few weeks of winter. Old Glory (by Lella Boutique), directly below, is the most "me" of the collections. I love red and blue together, but I think I’d put those prints to work in something with a Fourth of July feel. The third mockup surprises me the most. I tend to be rather blue-averse (when asked for my color preference the last time I bought a car, I asked for the color not-blue!). But Water, a collaborative collection from Ruby Star Society, goes all in with blue, and I like it! These three mockups were made possible by EQ8, and experimenting with them scratched a creative itch for me.

I come to you today, writing this blog post on a typewriter, in a trench coat, smoking a cigar. Okay, not really. But I should be. Because the Irish Chain Quilt, though seemingly just beautiful and innocent and a great choice for your next quilting project, is actually very, very mysterious.For example, it’s called the IrishContinue Reading...

Ich hatte die Ehre diesen wunderschönen Scrappy Irish Chain Quilt von Manuela zu quilten. Er hat die beachtliche Grösse von 2.25 x 2.25 m. Sie wünschte ein leichtes Quilting, ähnlich wie das vom Orginalquilt von Jessie Fincham, damit der Quilt schön weich bleibt. Auf dem Blog von Jessie Fincham "Messy Jesse" findet ihr auch ein Free Pattern für diesen Quilt. Nur für den Fall, dass ihr noch viele Stoffreste rumliegen habt, die gerne vernäht werden möchten... Wie ich die beiden Kreise gequiltet habe, verrate ich auf dem BERNINA Blog. Falls ihr den Post noch nicht gelesen habt, hüpf doch rasch rüber... Nun folgt eine kleine Bilderflut, den ich konnte mich einfach nicht entscheiden, welche Bilder ich rausstreichen sollte... Ich hab sie jetzt einfach mal stehen lassen... Wer schon etwas länger mitliest weiss, dass ich sehr geordnet an meine Quilts herangehe. Daher bewundere ich alle, die Scrappy Quilts machen können. Ich finde sie toll, doch ich bin mir nicht sicher ob ich selber mal einen machen kann! *lach* Einen habe ich bisher schon gemacht, doch sogar bei dem habe ich versucht eine gewisse Ordnung reinzubringen. Hier könnt ihr selber mal schauen wie mein "Grandmothers Flowergarden" geworden ist. Die Kreise und geraden Linien sind mit dem Ruler und die Blütenblätter / Federn habe ich freihand gequiltet. Manuela wünschte sich das Wollvlies und das war die perfekte Wahl. Durch das fluffige Wollvlies wirkt das Quilting so schön plastisch. Mit dem etwas festeren Baumwollvlies wäre die Wirkung nicht so stark. Das Baumwollvlies eignet sich mehr für ein dichteres Quilting oder auch Pantographquilting, bei welchem das Patchworkmuster mehr zur Geltung kommen soll als das Quilting. Ein Beispiel dazu findet ihr hier. Inzwischen ist der Quilt wieder bei Manuela. Schaut doch mal bei ihr auf Instagram vorbei. Ihr findet sie dort unter manoulest Das Quiltmuster hat mich definitiv herausgefordert, da ich mich immer noch nicht so recht getraue Freemotion zu quilten. Doch mit jeder Herausforderung wächst man ja auch und am Ende bin ich froh über solche Challanges. So muss man einfach mal raus aus seiner Komfortzone... Mein Ziel in Zukunft ist nun mehr auch mal Freemotion zu machen. Es macht nämlich so was von Spass! Habt noch eine gute Woche ♥ Iva

Well, it's done and I love it! My green and white Irish Chain quilt turned out just how I envisioned it. It adds just a little bit of color and vintage charm at the foot of my bed. I also think it would've been cute had the fabric placement been reversed. I get asked a lot - the green I used is called "Forest" by Michael Miller (Cotton Couture). What do you think of my new "homebody" pillow? I got it at the Corn Wagon Mercantile a few weeks ago. The Corn Wagon is an awesome quilt shop in Springville, UT. and they recently opened a retreat center and mercantile behind the shop. The whole place is just a dream. I definitely want to go back again soon! So I mentioned in my last post that I was debating whether or not to do crosshatching for the quilting on my quilt. I decided to splurge and do it and I couldn't be happier! It was a bit pricey to do the crosshatching since my quilter basically had to quilt it twice but I think it was worth it. I rarely do custom quilting (which is always more expensive) so I thought I would treat myself this time! I feel like the crosshatching has a vintage vibe but is still kind of modern which is exactly the look I was going for! The quilter I used on this was Denae Hansen of Plain Jane Quilting in American Fork, UT. She always does a fantastic job and has a pretty quick turnaround time. I always love her work! I'm kind of obsessed with my backing fabric. I went to 4 different fabric stores before I found it and the minute I saw it I knew it was the one. It's called Wildwood Peonies in Navy by Rifle Paper Co. for Cotton + Steel. I actually ordered it through AACottonCreations on Etsy though because the shop here in Utah only had it in canvas. Are you one to put a lot of thought into your quilt backs or not? Some people say, "Oh, it's on the back, you won't see it." But you do! And I just want the back to make me as happy as the front. Remember the labels I got a while back? They're from Border City Quilts on Etsy. They were custom so if you want something similar just tell them you want the 2" x 2" cotton fold over labels. You can pick the font and text. I got a sheet of 20 for $16 and I'm very happy with them! I'm so glad to have this quilt done so we can enjoy it now. I hope you don't mind me sharing a boatload of pictures with you today! Please let me know if you have any questions. I'm also so happy to announce that I have the printable, condensed instructions for the two-color Irish Chain quilt HERE (2 size options). Happy quilting!
