Double Irish Chain

I have just finished my second quilt! I mentioned it in my post about Fallon's graduation dinner, but I wanted to share some better pictures of it.



The quilt is called the "Double Irish Chain". I hand quilted it and one of the really special things about it is that in every white block, I quilted a Celtic knot. It looks really beautiful!



Because it was a gift, I wanted it to be a surprise. I've been working on it in secret for the past few months. I was very shocked to hear that Fallon had no idea I was working on it. I thought at some point I would have gotten caught.



I thought that once I was finished with this quilt, I wasn't going to start on another one...but I've already got something I want to do next in mind. ;-)
