The thought of making a double wedding ring used to scare me. It was one of those quilts I loved but figured I would never make. But with a little encouragement from Victoria I took the plunge and what was just going to be a table runner (you know just to try the method and say I had done it) turned into a queen size quilt.
If you’ve been toying with the idea of a double wedding ring quilt, Keepsake Quilting has a special on templates. They even have it precut using 30’s fabrics if you are interested. For someone who hates to cut out quilts this is quite a deal. That’s over 2,000 pieces you don’t have to cut!
Speaking of the 30’s the Farmer’s Wife is also on sale on their site. It’s 45% off! Now that’s a deal!
Gorgeous, what an achievement.

it's lovely…i've made 2 DWR and contemplating a 3rd…meaning i've got scraps cut…LOL
That is a stunning quilt.
Your Double Wedding Ring quilt is wonderful. That is one quilt I want to make. I just have not gotten around to it yet. I think I have the same feeling about it as you did. Maybe I can get myself into this quilt soon…?
Queen sized DWR – way to go! Love the scrappiness, looks like you had a great time with Victoria. Her books are inspiring, so I bet a course with her is wonderful 🙂
Fabulous quilt! I know what you mean about thinking it impossible. Makes the finish all the sweeter.☺

Wow, that's a great achievement! That's a tough pattern to make.
Did you use the Fons and Porter templates?
