Irish Chain Twist Quilt-a-long - Improv Piecing Units

Melissa Corry (Happy Quilting) runs some great quilt-a-longs.  The last one I was able to take part in was her Star Surround quilt-a-long and that was before I started blogging (so it has been a couple of years).  I love Irish Chain quilts and Melissa's version looked like such fun, I had no choice but to join in.

I am making the wall size (my walls in my sewing room really need some more color) and am using scraps from Bonnie & Camille's lines from Ruby all the way through Daysail.  I am pairing the prints with some Kona Navy as a background instead of my typical white.

This week's assignment was to make some Improv Piecing Units and they went together very easily.



Have you taken part in any good quilt-a-longs recently?

    For some reason these blocks are making me think of watching taffy being made / pulled. Weird... maybe I'm just hungry (or craving sweets)!

    Very pretty! I'm considering using navy as a background color for a quilt so this is very cool to see!

    The navy background for your squares is going to look so good!

    After conducting extensive reviews, The Sweet Home found a luxuriant victor at a bargain price: the Premier Down-Like air jordan shoes australia Personal Choice Density Pillow. The review team writes that this pillow was "the runaway winner. It scored high marks in every category across all testers and sleeping positions, air jordan australia particularly for supportiveness, breathability and coolness, cuddliness, and sleep quality."
