"Irish Chains-Part One" This month, you will make five 8-inch Irish Chain blocks. Irish Chain blocks are great as "connector" blocks. They set off pieced or appliqued blocks and provide an alternative to "empty" blocks or sashing strips. The bonus? They are easy to make! Just take your time and focus on accurate piecing. You will also make four 6-inch Evening Star blocks this month; you should be an expert at making these blocks by now!

"Irish Chains- Part Two" Where did the time go? It seems like only last month that we started this block-of-the-month, and here we are in Month Eleven with only one more month to go... and then you'll be done making this quilt! I hope you have enjoyed the year so far, and are looking forward to finishing your quilt. This month, you will make one 8-inch Irish Chain block and a dozen 4- by 8-inch Half-Chain blocks (finished sizes). The Half-Chain blocks are side-setting blocks that "finish" the Irish Chains. Let's start sewing!

"Four-Patch Stars, Quad Stars, and Quilt Assembly" Here we are - at the end of the year. It seems like only last month that we started this block-of-the month, and now we are about to finish. This month, you will make three 6-inch Four-Patch Stars, three 6-inch Quad Stars, and more 1-1/2 inch half-square triangles. You will also assemble your quilt top, sewing together all of the units that you've made over the past year. Let's sew!
