They really look nice now. I wanted to see what the problem was so I wouldn't have that when I start a DWR. Thanks for sharing the problem and solution! :lol:

They look wonderful now. Please let me know what the problems were. DD wants a double wedding ring quilt when she gets married. I'll need all the help I can get.

the tutorial doesn't call for squares. it uses a solid, non-pieced center.

that said, there definitely are other ways to assemble wedding rings. a quick search on the internet will lead you to a number of other free tutorials.

Basically, I didn't set the scaling on my computer to print at 0, so my sizing was off, also, I just cut out some more of those white pieces, but bigger, and put everything together again.

I have a UFO DBW ring in a box. Get it out ever so often to see how mad it can make me. My curvy pieces or rings are little squares pieced. Don't know what possessed me to make this son of satin but I liked the pattern. One day I will fifnish it I hope. Good luck. Stablizer sounds good.
