Default DWR - Instructions? Book? Tips?

I recently purchased the DWR Accucut Dies. I'm looking for instructions on the actual piecing sequence and technique. When I do a search, I keep coming up with the 'rings that bind' technique or PP. Pointers to a good online source would be great. I would be more than willing to buy a good book if there's one out there.
Any suggestions, tricks or tips for piecing will be welcome.
Thanks!!!

When I do a search for "Double Wedding Ring Tutorial" I got lots of hits.
This blogger made one with the Accucut dies but there are lots of other tutorials.

It looks as if it was all in the wording of the search. There is an excellent video showing and tips on making one. Sorry couldn't find it this morning hope you can.

That is the same problem I have when searching, I can search and search and find nothing useful and then ask on here and someone has a magic potion and finds lots of good stuff! I love this place, when all else fails the net fairies help us out

Just be sure that your seams are accurate. This is one pattern that will give you fits if your seams are not right on.

I found this to be a very difficult pattern. I took a class and we used Shar Jorgensen's book. I did get it finished (top only so far). It did feel good to get it done. Accuracy is very important and be careful not to stretch the bias edges. One problem I had is I made it king sized, and that was a lot of bulk. Good luck.
