I love the simplicity of the scrappy Irish Chain quilt! The result really looks more complicated than it really is. My first queen size quilt was a 2-colour double Irish chain made before rulers and rotary cutters. It was pieced from hand-cut squares. I hand quilted it 1/4” on either side of each seam, while sitting on the floor with the quilt pinned to my jeans! This tutorial has inspired me make a a crappy Irish Chain lap quilt for my new trailer. I’ll quilt it with my new-to-me Baby Lock Shashiko machine. It will be done in no time at all! Thank you, Jenny, and all the wonderful Missouri Star staff! Stay well! Muskoka ON 🇨🇦
I bet that I have watched that original Irish Chair video at least two dozen times over the years. It’s been on my quilting bucket list since you first filmed it, but somehow I have yet to make it. You have inspired me to move this one to the top and I am committing myself to completing the Irish Chain quilt in 2023! Happy 15th Anniversary MSCQ! ❤
I started stitching in 2019 and I watched all of the old vids. They were inspiring then as all the MSQ vids are now. Thank you Doan family and MSQCo staff for all the greats of the past, present, and the next 15 years.
Jenny, I've been a fan since the old tv days and i LOVE the old, traditional quilts and I'm so glad you are doing this! This one will be done with my 7 rear old granddaughter as her first 9-patch. 🥰
I am a great fan of your Missouri Star community. Your "Triple Play" videos are absolutely SUPER. I just want to help young people fall in love with the art of quilting. Sewing is my most exciting place to be. Keep up the good work; All of you...and your teams behind the scenes. Congratulations on your 15 yrs, and may you continue to be innovative. (BTW-my location is Ponce, PR.)
Leaning out my mom’s house and I found 3 totes FULL of vintage fabric (and several UFOs made from feed sacks!!). This will be a perfect quilt pattern for this fabric!
Thank you Jenny - for 15 years of fun and inspiration! You have helped me so much with my quilting. I love how you teach! This quilt gets started tomorrow! 🥰
Thanks for re-doing this tutorial, Jenny. You’ve reminded me that I want to make this design for my friend of Irish descent, in the bright colours she likes. I think if I use brightly-coloured thread 🧵 and a very interesting quilting pattern, the solid Kona Snow I have enough of will work great as the background!
I really want to make this quilt. I love it. Just ordered some jelly rolls from you in bright colors which will be perfect for this. I might embroider on some of the large squares to add a personal touch. Thank you for all the lovely tutorials.
Jenny I have learned so much from you. Even after all the time I have been sewing, I still think "a few anchor stitches" as I begin. Watching your videos always brightens my day. You are a treasure.
Congratulations on 15yrs!!! The only thing I am thankful for during COVID other than our good health is.... I started quilting during that time. It is something I have always talked about doing. I have been sewing since I was about 10 to 11yrs old so I guess it was about time! Thanks for all the encouragement by you, Natalie and Missy! They really get your creative juices flowing! Thanks again!
I've been cutting part of my scraps into 2 1/2" squares to make "whatever" with! After seeing this, I may have to get some background yardage to make this with them 💗💗
I am so excited for the remake of 15 classic tutorials! I don’t know why, the old ones are good and I’ve probably watched them all multiple times, but I’m just excited to see which ones you will do. How fun! 🎉
Oh Jenny! It’s so exciting to know that you are redoing some of your original quilt tutorials! I have watched from your very first video and having them redone will be wonderful. Although- the vintage videos make me smile- you have come sooo far and developed a wonderful UA-cam channel. I follow you on every platform. Thank you!
Happiest 15th Anniversary!!!🎉 I’m always happy when Friday comes because you release a new tutorial. You where the first tutorial I watched when I restarted quilting. My mom made beautiful quilts, she inspired my quilting desire, and your tutorials made me flourish! Thank you for so many wonderful videos, it’s been a joy to sew with you all these years! Your success is amazing and so well deserved!!!!
Being a fairly new quilter at 74 next week, I have not gotten to this one yet, but I hope to soon. I have stuck to log cabins, rail fence and around the block. I need to challenge myself to spread my wings more. Thank you so much for all you do to inspire us all. I love all your videos, but this is one of my favorites. Enjoying you from NE Tennessee...
Wow, Jenny! The video has been released less than an hour and approaching 2k views! An old, beautiful quilt pattern. And we appreciate you so very much!
I've made Irish Chain-ish, Irish Change and love your tutorials. I make the quilt as you go by rows and they are so fun. I haven't made one with plain background and not one with a jelly roll. Like you said, it is so versatile! Making one with a jelly roll is on my every growing list!
O the beautiful Irish Chain!!! It is on my bucket list to make! I have watched the older version several times and just know this one will be so much fun.
What a great reminder of those classic quilts - I’m going to use this in a smaller version for the charity my guild makes quilts for - these are children in a crisis situation so nice fun, bright colors would be great and I can do 2 quilts from the directions (yes, I do have the digital pattern already in my basket just waiting for more wonderful goodies!!!).
What are you using for your background fabric? Batiks or regular cotton fabric? I want to do mine in teal batiks so wondering if I can use cotton for the background. TYIA
Love this pattern! I have made it and it is very easy and fun to put together. I think I see another one in my future! Thanks for another great tutorial!
As always, you are such a joy to watch. Uplifting, kind and plenty of tips. Thank you for sharing this again. Love those bright fabrics, too. Also thank you for the "heads up" about the fraudulent account. It's really sad that there are people who try to scam innocent customers and your company, too. Take care and blessings to y'all.
Thank you Jenny! This is one quilt in my list to make. It’s so simple the way you do it. I love it!💖💖💖 Happy 15 Year Anniversary to you and your team. I’m so glad I discovered your page through my sister 2 years ago.
You can do it any way you want. Jenny said “You are the boss of those seams.” The same applies to the fabrics and colors. It’s your quilt, make it look the way YOU want!
I'm inspired to ask my daughter to procure the background yardage in her husband's favourite color and shade, and then use multicolor scraps and strips of colors that look great with that particular blue. It can be an ongoing project as scraps appear.
For Jenny especially rn- you have been a true inspiration & blessing to me since I started my own quilty journey around 7-8yrs ago. Being often housebound, it’s been your tutorials & teaching style that helped teach me, from ‘nesting’, to binding ! A most sincere “Thank-you” to you & your precious family, for all the years of videos, help & amusement. You are all stars! Might you continue for *many more years, be a blessing to those who come across your site, & be blessed in return☺️🙏🫶 Nicki x
♥️♥️ I remember the old video and still enjoy watching tutorials!!! Thank you so much Jenny. It been great growing older ( and wiser 😂😉) with you and your family!!! ♥️♥️
I love the Irish chain and I love the way you demonstrate your skills and simplicity of your skills. I have made several of these quilts over the years. May I take this opportunity to congratulate you all at the Missouri Star Quilt Company celebrating your 15 years of being a "sewciable" patchwork company.
I love this video, I always viewed the Irish Chain from afar, but this video inspired me to get back to quilting and I have 3 rows completed so far. Thank you Jenny for sharing this.❤
My favorite block is the 9 patch. I have heard of the Irish Chain block but never seen how it was constructed, Thank you!!!!! This will be one of my next quilts. ❤
On the Irish Chain I see it was 7 across but how many down? I want to make a fuul x a queen size quilts? Thanks for all what your Company does for quilting so appreciated.
You spent a lot of time making sure the seams were pressed to the print and then, when sewing the blocks together, often pushed them to the white. Other than that great. I do remember the original - and made it then
Bugger. Can you imagine, postcard panel blocks, and great for a signature in the blanks. You have my mind going in many directions. I love it when you challenge me.
Congratulations on 15 years! 🥳🍾 I have been watching your videos for awhile now and you inspired me to start sewing again. I made some quilted placemats to work on getting the steps down and am ready to try a quilt. I bought the fabric to make the Irish Chain quilt and batting a few years ago. We are celebrating our 40th anniversary this year and will be starting this project in a couple of weeks. Thanks so much for all the videos and sharing your love of sewing with us! Take care! ❤️🪡☘️
It can't possibly have been 15 years! I still remember the first time I came across one of your videos and was absolutely charmed. It's been a joy watching you prosper.
Jenny, happy 15 year anniversary ❤️ 💖. I love Irish chain quilts. I'm making a valentine quilt right now. I started today after I got 3 valentine pillows finished today. Love you and your tutorials.

Thanks. I got the email and wondered if it was legit!
Hello there, thanks for the update... I got one and thought, not the usual MSQ way... so have ignored it. Great that you caught it so quickly.
I also received it and was positive it was junk! It’s terrible that some people want to trade in the reputation of an excellent company!!!

Woo-hoo! 15 years and still keeping us in stitches! Congratulations. Great series.
Dear Jane, you are Merciful God's gift to all of us
I saw a striped fabric in a store today & thought, "Jenny would use that for binding."
Everything old is new again! So springlike too🤗
Love the older quilts done with new modern prints! Thank's Jenny !
Happy Anniversary! ❤
THANK YOU JENNY BEAUTIFULL🥰

Thank you Jenny - for 15 years of fun and inspiration! You have helped me so much with my quilting. I love how you teach! This quilt gets started tomorrow! 🥰
Congratulations on fifteen years. You have made a difference in my quilting life.
I REALLY love the "all in red" Irish Chain design.
Thanks for re-doing this tutorial, Jenny. You’ve reminded me that I want to make this design for my friend of Irish descent, in the bright colours she likes.

Thankyou for your dedication to the quilting world.....
Happy 15th Anniversary! I've been with you for every one! One of these days I'll make it to Hamilton!
Jenny I have learned so much from you. Even after all the time I have been sewing, I still think "a few anchor stitches" as I begin. Watching your videos always brightens my day. You are a treasure.
HaPpY Anniversary ya'll! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us!
The old video that you posted is what inspired me to start quilting. Thanks Jenny for all that you do. I love your tutorials.
Always loved the Irish chain.

Enjoyed this very much, thank you
I've been cutting part of my scraps into 2 1/2" squares to make "whatever" with! After seeing this, I may have to get some background yardage to make this with them 💗💗
Congratulations on 15 years. Love this quilt and I have lots of scraps to make a great one.💗🇦🇺
This original was one of my favourite tutorials. I remember watching it when it came out. Your tutorials seemed to be longer in those earlier days.
Love watching you bring back memories!
Congratulations on your 15 years. Have enjoyed so many of your tutorials and made many of your quilts. You make it all look so easy. Love. Irish chain
I am so excited for the remake of 15 classic tutorials! I don’t know why, the old ones are good and I’ve probably watched them all multiple times, but I’m just excited to see which ones you will do. How fun! 🎉
I love how you take a quilt I think I could never do and make it doable. I’ve learned so much watching your videos. Thank you.
Oh Jenny! It’s so exciting to know that you are redoing some of your original quilt tutorials! I have watched from your very first video and having them redone will be wonderful.

I have one sitting in my wip pile, just need to finish piecing it this weekend... Thanks for the joy you bring to Friday mornings!
Being a fairly new quilter at 74 next week, I have not gotten to this one yet, but I hope to soon. I have stuck to log cabins, rail fence and around the block. I need to challenge myself to spread my wings more. Thank you so much for all you do to inspire us all. I love all your videos, but this is one of my favorites. Enjoying you from NE Tennessee...
Thank you Jenny. You’ve made it sound far less scary so I’m going to give it a try!
One of my favorite quilts....yours is beautiful
Wow, Jenny! The video has been released less than an hour and approaching 2k views! An old, beautiful quilt pattern. And we appreciate you so very much!
That is so beautiful. I think I’m going to have to try this!

O the beautiful Irish Chain!!! It is on my bucket list to make! I have watched the older version several times and just know this one will be so much fun.
I love the 2 1/2 “ ruler, I use it all of the time.

I'm so excited. I learned to quilt watching your videos. You inspired me during a very hard time in my life. Thank you Jenny 😊 💓
Hi Ryan. I'm a new viewer and loved your video. I hope your stitching in February is going well .
I am currently making an Irish Chain With green batiks. Thanks for making this beautiful example. What a wonderful fabric choice.
What are you using for your background fabric? Batiks or regular cotton fabric? I want to do mine in teal batiks so wondering if I can use cotton for the background. TYIA
Love this pattern! I have made it and it is very easy and fun to put together. I think I see another one in my future! Thanks for another great tutorial!
Love this pattern. Makes a beautiful quilt and yet so simple to make. ❤
I love this tutorial and the Irish Chain. I currently have all the blocks sewn together just waiting for me to assemble them together. Can’t wait!
Love it
This is exciting! Looking forward to the new revamped old videos. =)
As always, you are such a joy to watch. Uplifting, kind and plenty of tips. Thank you for sharing this again. Love those bright fabrics, too. Also thank you for the "heads up" about the fraudulent account. It's really sad that there are people who try to scam innocent customers and your company, too. Take care and blessings to y'all.
I love Irish Chain quilts, but, have not made one, yet ❤ Thanks for the tutorial and inspiration ❤
Thank you Jenny! This is one quilt in my list to make. It’s so simple the way you do it. I love it!💖💖💖 Happy 15 Year Anniversary to you and your team. I’m so glad I discovered your page through my sister 2 years ago.
A real favourite of mine. 🇬🇧
This is so gorgeous! IC is one of my favs! I made a low volume for my daughter with Kona solids!
Classic....I really like this
oooh this gives me ideas about a couple of jelly rolls I have of civil war era looking strips I have.
Love it thanks so much for sharing ❣️🧵🪡✂️💕❤️💖🥰💓💗
It is on my bucket list to do a red and white Irish chain. Assuming I can just do a solid red in place of all the prints?
You can do it any way you want. Jenny said “You are the boss of those seams.” The same applies to the fabrics and colors. It’s your quilt, make it look the way YOU want!
I'm inspired to ask my daughter to procure the background yardage in her husband's favourite color and shade, and then use multicolor scraps and strips of colors that look great with that particular blue.
It can be an ongoing project as scraps appear.
Happy Anniversary! I love your videos. This quilt pattern is on my bucket list.
Love this! It’s beautiful!
Beautiful
I LOVE this quilt! I've been busy making red & white nine patches out of my scraps; now I know what quilt I'll be making. Thanks Jenny & Crew. ❤️
Oh my yes! Even just two-color blocks would be great! I’ve been needing a push to get out,of a slight funk and this quilt is a great start!
For Jenny especially rn- you have been a true inspiration & blessing to me since I started my own quilty journey around 7-8yrs ago.

Do you have a tutorial for a double or triple Irish chain and this is a beautiful quilt
Wow, 15 years! What an achievement . Congratulations. This quilt is definitely on my to do list. Love watching MSQC tutorials. ❤️
The first quilt pattern I bought in the 80's was the Eleanor Burns Irish chain. I've still never made one. Think this must be remedied! Thanks Jenny!!
I just love your sewing machine hmm sound I wish my machine sounded like that.
I followed the first video to make the Irish Chain I brought in a few days ago to get quilted!
Beautiful quilt ! Congratulations on 15 Wonderful Years ! Wonderful for all of US too !❤

You spent a lot of time making sure the seams were pressed to the print and then, when sewing the blocks together, often pushed them to the white. Other than that great. I do remember the original - and made it then
I think whoever prepped the other strip sets pressed it backwards.
Bugger. Can you imagine, postcard panel blocks, and great for a signature in the blanks. You have my mind going in many directions. I love it when you challenge me.
Congratulations on 15 years! Love that you are revisiting the original videos but they are great too!
Thanks for re-visiting this pattern again - it's STILL on my to-do list! I love all your videos- you're my go-to inspiration!
Congratulations on 15 years! 🥳🍾 I have been watching your videos for awhile now and you inspired me to start sewing again.

I love my 2 1/2inch ruler. This has been on my bucket list to. After I finish the three quilts I'm working on. Enjoyed watching this again. Thanks.
It can't possibly have been 15 years! I still remember the first time I came across one of your videos and was absolutely charmed. It's been a joy watching you prosper.
Yes one of mine too. Made 1 but I’m working on a second one. Tried and true!
Love the fabric love the pattern. Cheers Jenny!
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. ☺️🇦🇺
Jenny, happy 15 year anniversary ❤️ 💖. I love Irish chain quilts. I'm making a valentine quilt right now. I started today after I got 3 valentine pillows finished today. Love you and your tutorials.
❤❤
Question: Do you shorten your stitch length when you are making the strip sets? Sometimes, my cut sides unravel a little bit. 😊
