      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!!!

      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!

    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 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...

    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!

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 am making this quilt for one of my neices. I want to tell you I think you are the queen of quilting I love you and how you are so real in your tutorials. " To the dark side " always makes me laugh.

    This is a brown bag quilt as Eleanor Burns would say. After you cut up the strip sets, put them into 2 brown paper bags. Shake them up, and pull out one of each. This is a great tip for people like me that would sit there for ages trying to pick the "perfect set" to sew together lol.
