Irish Chain Top

It's a top!

Irish Chain

52.5 x 73.5

I'm trying to empty a box of 4 inch width scraps that I have accumulated over the years from others. I usually have a couple of Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC) projects going for each width of scraps but sometimes I just have so many odd lengths of different colors so I decide to just see how many comfort quilts I can make to empty the box. 

For this quilt all of the black pieces in the Nine Patches came from the 4 inch width scrap box. Most of the gray pieces in the Nine Patches also came from the 4 inch width scrap box. 

For the large squares I was thinking I had enough of that gray with those fancy circles. In the back of my mind I was thinking the Nine Patches were 7.5 inches unfinished and not 11 inches unfinished. Good thing I caught my mistake before I cut any gray chunks. 

And sew on...

The box of 4 inch width scraps I've been working from is a large flat rate USPS box. 

So far I've made the following tops/block sets with scraps in that box:

1. Yankee Puzzle Top

2. Yankee Puzzle #2 block set of 48 blocks

3. Blue/Orange Four Patch Top (also added orange solid)

4. Basket Weave (also added orange solid)

5. Four Patch and Two Rails (brown, orange, yellow)

6. 29 Wonky Stars (for an ongoing Wonky Star project)

7. Squares on the Diagonal 

8. Quirky pink, blue, purple

9. This top.

I think there will be one more top! Stay tuned!
