This month the Island Batik Ambassadors received the new Irish Chain Die from Accuquilt. Irish chain is a very traditional pattern and always fun to make and the Accuquilt die makes it super easy to cut out. It was fun to take a picture of it with all my spring bulbs in bloom!
For this blog hop I received the beautiful Jabberwocky Collection. These patterns are fun and modern and were a blast to play with. I pieced my quilt using my favorite cream Aurifil thread and pressed flat with my Oliso iron.
I had fun quilting my project using my favorite Hobbs 80/20 Cotton/Poly batting and Schmetz Microtex needles. I did a bunch of continuous curve over the entire surface.
I used the orange - purple plus the white print for the x's in my Irish Chain. I then used the yellow-blue for the backgrounds. I love how the rainbow came out and I think the blue binding sets it off nicely.

I hope you get to quilt today!
